Why is it that my version of Pagemaker 3.0x will reduce the size of a file by 30% if I use save as... instead of save...? Does anyone else have the same problem? If you really want to compress a Pagemaker file (preferable 1 page) for archiving purposes, here's a tip: Cut the entire document, paste it in the scrapbook, and place the scrapbook on the same page. Now the whole page is treated like a graphic. But beware. You can not edit the text, so I wouldn't really recomend this method unless you are sure that you are finished with it. Using this method, I reduced nearly 5 megabytes of files to 700K and conveniently stored them on a floppy. (And I even backed it up!) But be careful...
