Hello, AutoCad users,

I have a drawing which has become large --  10.6 MB – while a similar one is ~~900k.  I saved it under a new name, erased and purged, saved and finally there was ONE straight line on the drawing.  That act chopped it way down to 10.0 MB.  What now????  

Thanks     /s/   Bob

Save your drawing as Autocad 2004/lt2004 drawing(*.dwg), this will help.

Ahoy, AutoCAD Folks,

Tried it.  Brought it down to 9.98 MB.

There is some serious fault here.  I don't know how to pursue it.

Thanks     /s/    Bob

rhbelter:  See your "other" thread re: same subject.
