woefi Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I have made a sample document in Publisher containing only 1 page with 1 rectangle. Then I imported a multipage-pdf with 29MB (which shows only page one...) and an afdesign-file of 21MB (also multipage, and only page one shows...) In the Resource Manager, I changed both imported files to LINKED to save filespace. when I save, my file is 100MB! So doing the maths: 21+29=50MB embedded size plus 100k for the rectangle and fileheader, if you will. 1mb+1mb for filepaths and preview + 100k for rectangle and fileheader = 2,1MB Why is it 100MB?!?

carl123 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Linked files do not as yet appear to be functioning as linked files and will always be embedded thus increasing the file size. Hopefully this will be corrected in a later beta To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

File size is still the same. iMac: 3,6 GHz 10-Core Intel Core i9 / Graphic: AMD Radeon Pro 5500 XT 8 GB / System: Sonoma 14.1 (23B74) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevieB Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Yep! Me too... Although if you have more than one instance of an image then that image is linked and doesn't increase the file size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
