Problem

Symptoms: The user is having problems with small documents being extremely large in size. He has a one page file that is over 110k in size. Solutions: The user's files contain many font tables. Each one of these tables can be about 500 or 980 bytes in size. These are inserted when you select a font. Even if that font is deleted the font table is still resident. Using Fast Save turned to No will delete out the unneeded tables. Also creating a document and then retrieving the large document will clear out the extra tables. We tried these options and he is happier now. Also he was using Glyphix fonts. Glyphix fonts data will also make files larger than usual because that information is also stored in the doc.
