Format text around pictures makes file HUGE
In Office 2003:
I have a word document of file size 34kB. I made two graphics in Visio. The Visio file is 359kB. I copy-n-paste the two graphics into my doc with default formt. The document size goes to 887kB. I then format the objects so the text is tight or square around them. Each format adds 2MB to the file, and it ends up with a total size of 5.54MB. What gives? |

Format text around pictures makes file HUGE
Okay, here's a better example.
=Create a new word document, save it. It's about 20kB. =Copy a small picture from Visio and paste it into document. It seems to embed only, I cannot make it paste as a picture. The doc size is now 118kB. Still acceptable. =Now format the text to wrap square, or wrap tight. Save. Doc size is 1592kB.
