with the addition of the .jpg, naturally it will increase the file size.



My experience is that adding a 30K JPG increases the file size of a
word document by something like 600K. I have no idea why, but this is
typical for Microsoft Word. I once had a Christmas letter I made -
two pages, ten pictures, it was too big to send to Microsoft itself.

I found that you should not do any editing of a .jpg in the word
document. The file size will increase greatly. Get the .jpg like you
want it first. Also, in MSWord, turn off Allow Fast Saves under
Tools/Options. That increases file sizes.. I write a EAA newsletter and
found this out the hard way.
