A trick we have found is that if you save your layout window as a TIF (Best
Resolution) and then place it inside a cell in Microsoft Excel. This works great
because everyone has Excel and they do not need a graphics program. This somehow
reduces an E-Size picture (approx 50 Meg) to a 2 Meg Excel file.

Hi Richard,
Try to open your jpeg file in Microsoft Photo Editor (if you have it) and
take the selection tool, then select image with extension area as bigger as
possible and make a crop after that. Save your image like this and your file
will be smaller. Try this!

Subject: MI-L Saving layouts as JPEGS
Hello folks,
I have been saving an A0 layout as a jpeg (Geologists like big maps),
but it produces a large file (8MB). I have no rasters, the layout is
mostly linework, some text and a few ploygons. There are large blank
areas. Anything less than 120 DPI and the linework and or text pixellate
too much and picture quailness suffers.Trying to save as PDF causes it
all to crash.
Any suggestions, helpful hints and the like would be welcome. I need to
produce a jpeg or other such fixed image so that they can be easily
viewed on screen and printed.
Cheers
