bonjour marie-nöelle,<br>
<div class="im"><br></div></blockquote><div><br>Thank you very much for your quick answer.<br>In the mean time, the renamed 'autosave' file has eventually opened (I was having lunch, and when I came, it was here!). It that has been saved 10mns earlier than the real one so, hopefully, I will have not have lost too much.<br>
<br>I'll just comment your propositions, in case it can help someone else.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"><div class="im">
<br>
</div>three possible ways (always work with backed up files):<br>
<br>
a/ try to open the same document on a computer with (much) more ram.<br></blockquote><div><br>I have 4 Go RAM, and no other computer nearby.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
b/ if the pictures are big, replace them with their thumbnails (copy the current pictures to another place, create the thumbnails in another folder but with the same name as the original picture, put the thumbnails where the pictures were.<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>Yes, the pictures files are quite big, as they come from my 12 Mpx camera, and I didn't resize them because I want to keep the best definition for the printing book. It's too an early stage to know which picture will have to remain big, so it can be printed double-page, and wich will share a page with several others.<br>
Do you think resizing perhaps half of them could improve Scribus response time?<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
c/ if the pictures are not all on the same page: rename the folder where the picture are (i hope you have put them in a folder...), open the .sla with scribus (scribus should not find them and be more), delete some pages (and get sane chunks), save as.<br>
</blockquote><div><br>Yes, there all are in a dedicated folder.<br>None of them are on a real page, yet. They are scattered around the one empty page (I needed on for the document to be created), in thumbnails sizes, and I'm grouping/moving them around while planning how to organize them in the book.<br>
I'll save the rename folder trick for another time, in case I need it.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
