[NTLK] Paperback or Newton Press - creating large books

I'm trying to get Lawrence Lessig's "Free Culture" onto my Newton for
bedtime reading. When I run a plain text version of it through
Paperback 2 (my preferred format), the Newton takes about 5 minutes to
open the resulting package, and then says it has insufficient memory to
turn the page. I don't think the book is too big for the Newton to
handle, because I just read Mark Twain's "Life on the Mississippi" in
Paperback format, and it was even bigger than the Lessig book. Any
ideas what I might be doing wrong?

I tried using Newton Press 1.1 from a Mac Word 5.1 version of the same
book, but it would only create a 1-page book. Anybody ever run into
this glitch? Again, I've made bigger documents with Newton Press that
worked fine, and I don't know what I'm doing differently this time.

TIA,
Michael
