Each ISO file makes its own CD. In other words, one ISO file per CD. The number of ISO files you would need to download depends on what all you want to install.
The easiest route is to use Debian's netinstaller to install a base system, then get the other packages you want/need online.oz

It is not necessary to download all of the images for your architecture. The packages are sorted by popularity: The first CD/DVD contains the installation system and the most popular packages. The second one contains slightly less popular ones, the third one even less popular ones, etc. You will probably only need the first DVD (or the first two CDs) unless you have very special requirements. (And in case you happen to need a package later on which is not on one of the CDs/DVDs you downloaded, you can always install that package directly from the Internet.)What iso images do you need to create the full CD's? They have 21 but i imagine not all are used...life is the greatest opportunity that the nature had given you
