What If I Don't Understand CSS selectors?

I would encourage you to learn some CSS. If you don't want to learn CSS, I would encourage you to install Firebug (for Firefox) or enable the webkit developer tools for Safari or Chrome.

Once you install one of these plugins, use the inspector tool to be able to hover over and click on different page elements like h1 (a top-level heading element) or p (a paragraph element).

Once you find the element you want to target, you will add a new "Selector" for the font you've added to "Your Collection." In the "Selectors" sidebar, simple enter the element like so: "h1" or "body" or "article" (this is a new HTML5 element).

To target certain parts of the page that may use an ID or class name, you would enter "#id" or ".classname" to target those sections of the page.

What If I'm Targeting Something That is Already Being Targeted?

Well, this is a problem. Your theme probably sucks and is applying the "font-family" CSS declaration to something in a non-graceful way. My recommendation is to "cascade" your styles by using extremely specific selectors so that you override your theme's naughty CSS by selecting "html body #id" or something to that effect.
