Unfortunately, I don't have another computer, or another OS on my one computer, to test it out on.

What I did was uninstall 2.0.4, and reinstall 2.0.2. I've been working with it a lot (many hours) since I did that (including inserting a number of photos; the file size is now up to 6 MB), and I haven't had any freezes. It certainly seems to me like it IS related to 2.0.4.

FWIW, the document does contain a special font (orienteering symbol font). Whether this is related to the freezes or not, I'm not sure. I would be willing to post this file on IssueZilla (there is nothing confidential about it), but I don't know how that would work since I am sure that anyone investigating wouldn't have that font installed.

If OO continues to misbehave on different installation you should report
your problem in IssueZilla, including the document and reproduction
steps. This way OO developers will investigate the issue amd hopefully
fix it.

Subject: [users] Writer file keeps freezing up

I'm on Windows XP, OOo 2.0.4.

I'm encountering a very aggravating situation with a Writer file repeatedly freezing up. The file is a newsletter, with quite a few sections, many in a 2-column format. The file size is not all that large at this point, as I haven't added any photos, although there are a few graphic elements included. It is less than 1 MB, around 12 pages.

I can work with it fine for a while, then it will freeze up, and Ctrl Alt Delete is the only way of moving forward. I open it up, do a simple thing like add or delete a line, and it freezes up again.

I've done newsletters like this using OOo for a couple of years and have not encountered this problem up to now. This is the first one that I've done with 2.0.4, but I'm not necessarily blaming this version, it could well be something else.

Has anyone else encountered anything like this? Any ideas at all? Thanks in advance.
