Tomi--

I agree with Dave--it's the Undo queue that's slowing you down. It's also InDesign's need to create a preview image for each graphic you place--and there's no way to turn this off (InDesign does it even when you have your graphics display set to "gray out").

In addition, you'll probably be able to speed things up by placing the images directly into the story, rather than placing them and then doing a cut and paste. Cut and paste are always slow operations, and they also entail the need to select text, change page views, etc. Try telling the insertion point object at the correct location in the text to place the relevant graphic, and I think you'll see another speed improvement.

Thanks,

Ole
