    Hiya,

    I have a weird problem in Word 2010 (with SP1). A document I am working on has 208 pages, with lots of embedded pictures placed inside table cells (snaphots of text from Acrobat Reader).

    When I open this document, it takes ages (sometimes 5 minutes) to enumerate all the pages. If I try and click anywhere in Word during this time, Word stops responding, and crashes out
    When I try and save this document, sometimes I will get a 'The save failed due to out of memory or disk space' error message, and sometimes the Save As dialog does not even appear, at all

    Any ideas? I suspect it is like this because Word simply cannot handle that amount of pictures, but is there anything I can do to make pasting the images more efficient

    Thanks

    Hi,

    The problem might occur if the picture output, to paste picture effective, you maychange output to "96 ppi" to compress picture size, follow these steps:

    • Create a new document.
    • Click File -> Options -> Advanced -> drop down Image Size and Quality, select All New Documents -> drop down Set default target output to , select 96 ppi.
    • Close document, and create a new one to embed picture test if it helps.


    Best regards.
