I start the document with an H1, and I use H2 - H5 through out the document, and I yet I don't feel that the H1 is too large, but do start to think the H4 and H5 is getting a bit small... That may be because I

No, with your wide margins the H1 is not too big. The sub-heads are too small. You should set a font-size on each heading. I'd set them all to the same size of course ;-) At least for a technical or educational document I like to indent the heading into the margin and keep the font size the same as the text, for clarity.

use CSS to change the font from what is normally Verdanna on my system to "times" for just the headings. Verdanna is an awfully large and readable font when compared to the same point size of Times New Roman (is that a bug in Microsoft's definition of points?)

Some fonts are "bigger on their body" than others like Garamond takes more space than Times.

chance to keeping it from wrapping on my system, but I like the way it wraps (and it probably only wraps that way on my system) in the large font.

Sometimes I do like the way a title wraps.

However I am not so interested in what you would still have to call <TAG SOUP>... Whether its <SPACER> or <POEM> its a lot of unneeded tags. If you want to search your poems embedded in your documents,

Not tag soup. With CSS <p class=copyright> is equal (mentally) to <copyright> and being based through inheritance on <p> we know its behavior.

or price increase). By using a proprietary document format in searching you are likely to increase the speed of the search anyway...

Not proprietary. With CSS <div class=poem> = <poem>. Easy for a search engine to do now.
