I've had this problem with the PIM. As youu've discovered, the markers
actually add to the size of the files and can affect formatting if (for
example) you make text changes immediately abutting.  The solution is
to use the conversion option of the PIM to cenvert back totext with
"standard" square bracket markers.  As far as I know this is the only
way  to move files to a machine that doesn't have the PIM.  While the
PIM markers appear clumsy  the options they offer of formatting and
then un-formatting text if you don't like it make them useful.

For every complex problem there's a simple solution.  And it's wrong!
