You have a 380MB PageMaker document??? Oh wow. And you lasted this long. Amazing. I would never allow my PM documents to go past 10MB each if I could possibly avoid it. PageMaker wasn't knicknamed RageMaker for nothing.

Try moving all your images to somewhere where PageMaker can't find them and then open the document telling it to ignore missing links. That might get it open. If it does, immediately do a Save As to another file name. Then do a "slide show" to visit every spread. Finally, do a diagnostic recompose.

I remember the terms but have long since forgotten how to actually do those things.

Again, save as to a new name. Close the document. Put the images back where they belong and try opening that second copy.
