.tps files too big?

[Syed Zaeem Hosain (Syed.Hosain@aeris.net)]

Wow! 2.8 Giga bytes?  That is a very large single file indeed. I am not surprised that FrameMaker chokes.

If you are truly creating that large a .tps file, then doing the creation of the PDF in multiple pieces and combing the resulting files in Acrobat may be the only way to proceed.

Curiosity: what is the resulting size of the final PDF file if you combine the multiple distilled outputs?

Subject: .tps files too big?

I'm doing a SaveAs PDF on a graphic intensive book and running into a problem about the time the .tps file hits 2,800,000 KB. FrameMaker fails around that point with an error dialog box that says:


Adobe FrameMaker 11 has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
(Button) Close program

Graphics include .ai files, pdfs as well as PNG files, all imported by reference.

Anybody have an idea what might be causing this error and/or how I can avoid it? The book distills fine if I split it into two parts. Files are on a network drive.

Thank you.

Craig
