File Increasing In Byte Size After Editing An |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer is noticing that a file is increasing in byte size after saving. The customer does have Fast Save set to "Yes". The user goes in and edits a graphic file that contains a graphic figure. Then, he replaces the graphic figure in the file with the same graphic figure. The filename does not change, however, the user is asking to replace the contents of the current file with a new file (even though the new graphic file is the same file). Solutions: WP changes the graphic information in the prefix file to a deleted packet. The prefix file is a temporary file and one of its responsibilities is to hold the actual graphic information. The new graphic information is then added to the prefix file. The prefix file now contains a full graphic and all the information from the old graphic. (The old graphic information, or delete packet, has changed form. It is no longer a graphic, but the size of the information is the same as the new graphic). With Fast Save set to "Yes" the delete packet (in this case the old graphic) is not removed and the file increases in size. With Fast Save set to "No" the delete packet is removed and the file does not increase in size. Fast Save does nothing more than rewrite the prefix file. |
