Sorry all. Here are the answers to several on and offlist questions:
 
Printed output is not required. The PDFs produced will be viewed online only.  
The graphics are PNGs, all imported and all stored locally. Everything (files 
and graphics) are stored on my hard drive. 
All are imported in multiples that allow for printing standard printing 
considerations (100, 150, 200, or 300 dpi as per comments from Richard Combs).
Brand new custom system - 16 GB RAM and 8 processors.
 
Thanks!
 
TVB

Tammy,

 

What type of graphic(s) are involved???

 

.eps, .tif, .???, or .pfs

 

note - if printed output is needed . . . colors in CMYK will be required and 
FM-10 will not mess with them, even in the Windows environment.

 

and you will probably want 300dpi for best results

 

and (in my case. . . of 3k catalog pp/yr - each averaging 3.25 images/p) - .tif 
processes the quickest.

 

i do not know the physical difference between .eps and .tif,

 

but, a 4.3k .eps file  = the print quality of the same graphic when it is a 
.tif at 1.25k.

 

size must have something to do with amount of processing involved.

 

changing to .tifs has saved me sooo much time . . . is now a pleasure to see 
the progress-bar actually hurry across the screen.

 

if you need a script to do this conversion . . . talk with Rick Quatro

Subject: Very slow paging in FM 10 in graphic-heavy files

 

FM 10.0 (all patched and current)/Win 7, 64 -bit
I have a book with 10 chapters and some appendices. Many of the chapters are 
graphic-laden, but all graphics are imported by reference. None are copied. 
Over the last few months when working on this book, I have noticed that paging 
through the opened chapters is taking an increased amount of time and that the 
files are very slow to refresh with the appropriate graphics displayed. I have 
tried the CTRL + L trick as well as the tried and true Page Up/Page Down trick 
to get the pages to refresh faster and that doesn't seem to help at all. It's 
really slowing me down to try to move through the chapters this way. If I need 
to get somewhere fast, I use the CTRL/G function to go to a specific page and 
then hope I am w/in one or two pages of where I want to be.
This issue just seems to have progressed and gotten worse and worse over time, 
and I haven't added any more plugins/changed the setup, etc. 
I was just wondering if anyone else has seen this issue/encountered this over 
time with FM10.
TIA,
TVB
