But Michael said the transfer went OK, it was when he tried to get an
overview that the Newt tanked. I would have thought the filters would have
complained during the translation process prior to the transfer.
I found it took a while for the overview to come up, but there was no
problem and the file opened fine.
However, I didn't try a file containing embedded graphics or tables.
That might cause problems, but I'd expect them to be caught before the
transfer.
He also mentioned a number of large RTF files. Is it possible there is a
store limit he somehow exceeded (I'd thought the Newt store size was pretty
much determined by available memory)?
