I have been comparing several FM books (specs bound for ISO) that are large 
with lots of docs that contain many referenced Visio's and text insets. I have 
converted the text insets (MIFs full of tables) to text so table entries will 
compare. But the compare function is not consistently working. I either get a 
FM crash, an incomplete number of CMP files (missing CMP files when I know the 
file changed), or just plain incorrect CMP files (CMP file just mimics previous 
version). I do not need the Visio's to compare, but I do need table text to 
compare (show what's deleted/added).

I am looking to memory as a cause, and will try to compare some more after 
closing all other programs and functions, but I thought I'd check the list to 
see if anybody has experience with this. Normally I don't do book compares, but 
we are starting a new version of our spec, and reviewers have asked to see all 
changes indicated specifically--not just with change bars.

Thank you in advance!
PS: I have 3GB of memory, 32-bit operating system.
PPS: I have thought to compare PDFs, but I fear the markup would be horrendous 
and useless.
