1) notice sys res checkpoints appear back to January, many of them. Is this correct? 2) how do i convert a wd2000 doc to a pdf file? Or a doc file of 7000kbs, the most rapid way to send over the internet? sorry for the dumb questions. tia |

1. It's correct for past months to be seen. All bold "saves" were created,
but not necessarily available, depending on disc space allowed. 2. Copy content to clipboard and insert in Adobe. Other methods are possible, but try this first. -- I mastered Wordstar graphics!

In your second question, I guess you or your recipient has an ISP limited
file size. You can cut about 25% by using a free Zip (ie: Winzip) app. -- I mastered Wordstar graphics! "Corday" wrote: 1. It's correct for past months to be seen.

I'd limit the amount of space available to SR to around 1GB or less (unless installing something large, like Office) to free up space on the HD, as it will try to fill the 12% of the C: drive that's reserved for it by default. Sending Doc files over the Internet is best done in compressed format (as a zip file). there's loads of 'dead' space in DOC files, which is removed by zipping them. I suspect that 700KB will come down to less than 70KB unless there's embedded jpegs. HTH -- Noel Paton www.crashfixpc.co.uk Nil Carborundum Illegitemi |

At that - if there are embedded jpegs, it may be that just changing the actual size of the pictures before embedding them will reduce the file size - many get embedded at an unnecessarily high pixel-count, either because the are resized after the embed, or because they use a very high pixel/inch setting in the original, which is probably unnecessary within the doc. -- Noel Paton www.crashfixpc.co.uk Nil Carborundum Illegitemi |

thanks for the responses and answers.
1) i periodically check sys restore to make sure it's enabled. 2) that was the problem with the doc file. i had an embedded picture in the file, but NOT in jpeg format. Updating the file using a jpeg embedded pix reduced the size from 7000Kbs to 500kbs. It transferred over the net much faster. told you i was dumb - "Noel Paton" wrote: On Tue, 28 Apr 2009 21:42:34 -0400, "webster72n" wrote: "Noel Paton" wrote in message .. .

Not dumb at all - just unused to the requirements!
