Thanks to everyone for the suggestions! I tried the "select all but last
2 paragraph marker" trick and only reduced by 20KB. I'm going to insert
some gifs. But I'm also going to pray that our StarTeam sys admin gets a
new release or configuration because there is really only so much you
can do to make a 150 page document use less than 2MB in Word.
Is Frame less of a hog on space? I would think not, but Frames "book"
feature works better than Word's "master document" kludge.
