OK, I still think I'm there, Michael. Just by changing Ch. 1 to plain text, which is my shortest chapter, it came to 129KB, just 21KB more than docx KB. If I did that with each of my chapters... we'd end up with KBs somewhere between the Rich Text format and the docx format. Still nothing to sneeze at (unless someone is allergic to long stories).
It's also why I included word count and page count.
