Publisher 2000

[Redroof]

I have uploaded 8 digital pictures of different sizes and
shapes to make a collage on a newsletter page. It loaded
fine the first time. Then I added 2 more pics and it
loaded fine again but when I closed the program and opened
again, it will not load the last 2 pics. It puts in 2
blank boxes. I deleted the 2 pics and it still won't load
one picture (even tho it's back to 8 again). When I go to
print it says "P does not have enough memeory to load
graphics". I can print all the other pages fine. Do I need
an upgrade? I've checked the site for updates and loaded
the OFF2000 SR-1 Core Update. Thank you for any help you
can give.

The pictures are probably becoming uncompressed, massively increasing
the size of your publication. Some of which are probably to large for Publisher
2000 to handle. What is the size of the Publication in MB right now?

Brian,
Thanks for your reply. The size is 58.2MB. Should I have
reduced the file sizes on all photos before importing?
I've done this in the past and the resolution was as good
when it was printed. Is there a way to avoid this?
Thanks,
Erma

It sounds like it is related to either printer memory or oversized pictures.
Do you have any problems printing like a 5 or 8 page newsletter using the
newsletter wizard which contains standard clipart.

Brian,

I never use standard clipart. It's for a school and they
always want real photos. I went back and reduced the file
size of each photo and it had no uploading problem on my
computer. But, before I did this, I burned a CD with the
newsletter file and opened it with a newer version of
Publisher (2002) at the school and it uploaded just fine
with the huge file sizes. So it must be a problem with
the older vs. don't you think?
Thank you so much for responding to my questions.

The newer versions of Publisher (2002 2003) reduce the file sizes and
image sizes up to 90% in most cases. This was done to address issues like
you have encountered. --
