It gets (more) difficult if a book has a very bad markup, adding "style=font-family: ...." to every paragraph; then you'll need to modify that with search&replace or regular expressions.

Oh yes, I know enough about css to surgically fix any epub (or mobi/kf8-->epub) I've encountered, but I find some of the oft-proposed 'simple generic solutions' to be too draconian for my nit-picky tastes
I mean it's easy to do a Calibre conversion which 'removes all margins' and/or 'removes all font settings', but this often removes styling you wanted left alone ... the result may be worse than the original problem (a bit like suggesting decapitation to cure a hangover). But I do understand that everyone's definition of an 'acceptable epub' is different.
