help?

Okay, I'm not quite grasping how to do the font transformations with Calibre. Resizing works wonders, but I can't seem to get it to change typeface.

Take this book for example: in the HLTM source, the verse is set in <pre> tags, and in the EPUB version this becomes Courier (even though the HTML displays in Times, go fig). But on the Look & Feel page, in the Extra CSS field, if I enter

PRE {font-family:Times New Roman}

(or any other font) this has no effect in the EPUB. Is this the wrong place for that? Syntax error? Or ... ?
