Very Large Documents from small images grow
I have created a word document containing text of 0.97MB and images, mostly
..JPG and .wmf, which when you add the individual size of the images on disk totals 3.78MB. The total volume I thought should be the sum of 0.97 + 3.78= 4.75MB, within the limits to send by e-mail. Wrong! The toatal size on disk is 29.6MB. What can I do to reduce the size of the document with images to 5MB or less...? I look forward to some help. MS Windows XP, Pro, Ver 2002, Service Pack 3. My computer is HP with Intel Pentium 4, 260GHz, 760MB of RAM |

What can I do to reduce the size of the document with images to 5MB or less...? First a question: What format are you using to save the document in? ..doc or .docx shouldn't give you that much expansion. To reduce the file to within your limits you could try saving it as ..html. That should put the image files in a separate folder that you can send along with the document. If the senders don't need to be able to edit the document, your best bet would be to save (that is, print) your document in .pdf or .jpg format. That should certainly bring it to within your limit. -- Bob http://www.kanyak.com |
