    I am pretty new to wordpress and slowly but surely learning but i have a few questions. I am use to my web builder where whatever i want, it does for me but the "backend" screws things up pretty bad and makes my site load pretty slow.

    Is there an easy way to change font size besides the HEADING 1,2,3?
    Is there a way to wrap text next to a picture. when i do it, the font changes size and is spaces weird.
    Is there a way to make columns (not a 2,3 or 4 they give you) but if i want to do a product comparison...kind of like on word where ou would just "tab" over and write a new sentence?

    Everything that you are asking can be done with just a little HTML.
    Never had a problem with the image spacing. If your text is being changed, it sounds like a formatting issue. I recommend that you NOT copy and paste from other text editors as it tends to leave formatting that conflicts with WP post editor. If you must copy and paste, do it in HTML or paste your content to notepad first to strip the additional code from it and then paste to Wordpress.


    I can help you with a columns plug in, but I recommend that you learn some HTML so that you can do these things for yourself and not rely on plug ins for such simple functions.
