Inserting picture problems

[Tina]

I am trying to create a flyer with a picture of my house
using publisher 98. The problem is that when I insert a
300kb jpeg picture onto my flyer, the flyer all of a
suddens grows to 11MB. How do I keep the pictures from
increasing in size so much. Help Tina

 

[°°°M°S°°Publisher°°°]

You cannot to anything about it. Publisher up to Publisher 2000 stores all
images internally in the Publisher file as UN-compressed bitmapped images.

It sounds like your picture scanned or taken on a digital camera at to high
a resolution. A photograph or scan needs to be no more than 150dpi.

In addition to David's response, be sure to upgrade to
Publisher 2003 when it is released. They have addressed
this size issue in the latest versions.
