Hi Nicole,

The problem is that InDesign keeps track of each action--that's what gives us unlimited undo. So as you place more and more snippets, the InDesign undo "queue" gets longer and longer. The same thing happens in the user interface, but it's not usually noticeable.

To clear the undo queue, save the file over itself at various points in your script--maybe every 20 snippets or so.

Thanks,

Ole
