Hi, 

In my searches of the archives, I only found on unanswered question similar to mine. 

After resolving the crashing problems, I now seem to be running into a serious performance problem. As my document get longer, the application is slower and slower. It starts at 17 sec. per page and after 50 pages it is down to 2 miniutes per. 

There are about 15 records per page, each record has five textframes. No graphics save a dividing rule. 

I have not been saving between each page though I'm now going to try that to see if it helps. 

I have lots of RAM though not a teribly fast HD (laptop). 

Any suggestions on where to look for a performance improvement? 

My next step will be to work page by page, then re-import as full-page PDFs though I lose flexibility then. 

Scott
