Stripping Fonts

Hi all. I apologize if this is covered elsewhere, but [standard excuses for not doing a thorough search here].

When converting an e-book to epub format for use on a Nook Touch, I can't figure out how to strip out the existing font definitions. I have several compilations that, after conversion, show up on the reader in what appears to be Times New Roman bold (exceedingly ugly, whatever it is) and overrides the Nook's font type selection.

There doesn't seem to be a Calibre conversion tool to remove these definitions. Anyway, I know I can do it manually by editing the CSS file directly, but I just can't believe there isn't already a conversion tool for that <-- that's why I think I must be missing something fundamental.
