I'm a little confused by the phrase "one page up zoom." Could you  
possibly explain that for me?

You're right, the overscan settings would be the recommended place to  
make these adjustments. My only suggestion to you is to try and  
figure out by what percentage you need to adjust the overscan. If  
it's 10%, then adjust by 10% of your resolution (IE, at 640x480,  
adjust by 32 left, 32 right, 24 top, 24 bottom).

Other than that, trial and error would probably be your best bet.
