So I am a little bit confused as to how the files are ballooning in size in just the copying operation. Still investigating but I am stating to think it is not anything TiddlyWiki is doing. It is likely Adobe Reader copying a pre-expanded, resized image to the clipboard and when I am pasting that into TiddlyWiki, it is not getting the tiny source file but some file data that has been through several layers of reinterpretation. I need to find a way to dissect the PDF with the tools that I have at work. Thanks for the info. /Mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
