Video/graphics driver?
Go to the manufacturer's web site of your graphics card and look around for an updated driver. Read the third FAQ here about the adapter acceleration. http://ed.mvps.org/Static.aspx?=Publisher/FAQs -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "BUGGY" wrote in message ...

A Publisher file can be 2 GB. I do believe you are experiencing a graphics
driver problem. It isn't too difficult installing a new driver. Do a disk cleanup.

Click Start, right-click My Computer, and then click Properties. 2. In the System Properties dialog box, click the Advanced tab. 3. In the Performance pane, click Settings. 4. In the Performance Options dialog box, click the Advanced tab. 5. In the Virtual memory pane, click Change. 6. Change the Initial size value and the Maximum size value to a higher value, click Set, and then click OK. 7.
