I have a problem with MS word 7.

We frequently have to print off a 10 page document with a few full page
150 dpi bit maps in it.

Any manipulation of these seems to cause a huge amount of swapping even
on a P/133 with 64 meg of RAM. Print manager also reports that each
document uses about 11 meg of disk when spooled.

We typically print off about 70 documents at a time so we need about a
gig of space to spool in as well as a fair bit of swap space I guess.

At the moment, I get the impression that Word is spawning a task or
thread which should generate all the output, but this is failing
( giving no error report ! ) once it runs out of disk space ( spool or
swap ? ).

I can put more drives in the system, but I need to know how to configure
Word and the print spooler to use them.

I guess setting the swap drive is easy, but where does spooled output
live ?  How do I configure windows to use some nominated path ?


Cheers, J/.
