Basically, I need to adjust the font type everywhere it isn’t specified. How can I do that? table, div, span, p, input, you name it. Is there a way I can do them all with 1 CSS rule that I can add?

    Yes there is, use it on the body element and it will cascade down to all children unless you specify otherwise.

    body {
    font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
}
#tahoma {
    font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;
}

    You can then override it 

    <body>
  <div id="default">
    I will inherit the body font-family, in this case Arial because no other rule has been set!
  </div> 
  <div id="tahoma">
    <p>Me, <span>Me</span> and <strong>Me</strong> are using Tahoma because our parent #tahoma says so.</p>
  </div>
</body>
