As I am designing my web page, I have created text boxes and then filled the
m
with a color so the text is emphasized.
1.  Are the text boxes considered to be graphics?
2.  If so, do I need to compress them?  Thank you.

Once you apply a fill to a text box it then gets treated as a graphic on the
html export.
no.

David,

A point of clarification, when you say that a filled text box gets treated
as a graphic on html export, then you are talking about Pub 2002 and 2003,
not 2000, correct?

Yeah, I am still lurking around ;-)

I think 2000 did that as well. Don't have it loaded currently or I'd check.

No need to check as I use filled text boxes on my site built with Pub 2000
without conversion. One reason I brought it up, was the poster was not
specific about the version, and I was wondering if there were some elements
overlapping text boxes which would result in GIF files, and perhaps that was
the issue. I also wanted to be clear that Publisher 2003 does create
graphics out of filled text boxes...
