Perhaps this question was answered long ago -- I didn't find it in the
archives or the list utility files, however -- but doesn't this depend on
how one measures a "long" document? I get "out of memory," "too many page
elements," and other such error messages in large files, even though my
machine has 20M of memory and all other apps besides Windows 3.11 are off.
Perhaps I missed a setting somewhere? If this question has already been
dealt with along the lines of a FAQ, maybe someone could enlighten me off-list.
