Hi, baguiobum,

PM Mac or Win?
Are you opening the *.P65 file in PM6.5x or PM7?

What error message do you get?

Check out these pages in Adobe's PM KB:

Troubleshoot publications that won't open (PageMaker 7.x on Mac OS)

Are you trying to open from the CD? If so, copy the file to your HD then try. According to our poll, that is the #1 cause for files not opening!

When in doubt, deny all terms and defnitions.

Hi, baguiobum,

> it read: Can't Open File.

Anything else?

When you copied the file to you hard drive, did you disable the Read Only attribute on all the files?

Have you looked at this page in the PM KB? (PM6.5 and PM7 are very similar.)

> it's 480 mb.

That's quite large, suggesting several embedded images.
