I am going to create a document that will have in excess of 500 pages. I have a question about HTML and the way that iSilo compiles the pages.

If for instance, I use <font size=2 face=Arial> and this is distributed throughout a page---for each paragraph, does this increase the final size of the iSilo compiled document in comparison to having

<body>
<font size=2 face=Arial>
The rest of the document
</font>
</body>

Thank you,
Linda

Each formatting run that is different from the previous formatting run adds to the size. A formatting run is a contiguous run of text with the same styling information (e.g., bold/italic/color/font, etc.) applied to the entire run. So an entire page of text enclosed within <font size=2> would have one run (assuming you didn't have any intermediate formatting). If you have each indvidual paragraph enclosed within its own <font size=2> then since the formatting for the text of each paragraph is the same, it would also be considered one contiguous formatting run for the entire page.
