For 7 years I have been creating Powerpoint presentations then going to
File/Send To/Microsoft Word and using the Notes with blank lines options. If
the ppt is 605 KB the Word document ends up pretty small. But for some
reason today - it is making my 605 KB file turn into a 8,200 KB Word
document. It is massive and slow. My big problem is I take the Word file
and merge with others to make a manual. I spoke to my Service Desk at the
office and they can't help me, and it is urgent...I am so hoping someone out
there knows a quick fix. The Service Desk tried to do the Detect and Repair
but it didn't matter. I will take any suggestions

Detect and Repair is for damage the program. To try to repair damage to the
document, go to the File Open dialog, single-click on the huge document,
click the down arrow next to the Open button, and choose Open and Repair.

If that doesn't help, more suggestions are at
