SYMPTOMS
When you delete pages in a catalog, Web page, or newsletter publication created by Microsoft Publisher, the size of your publication may not decrease as expected. For example, if you delete a page containing a graphic that is 3 megabytes (MB) in size, the publication file size will not decrease by 3 MB.



CAUSE
Pictures from deleted publications are stored for further use in the Microsoft Publisher Design Gallery. This behavior only occurs with catalog, Web page, or newsletter publications.



RESOLUTION

 * 1) If the Wizard is not displayed, click Show Wizard in the lower-left corner of the Microsoft Publisher window.
 * 2) Click Extra Content.
 * 3) Click Delete All to delete all content not used in the current publication. Alternatively, click Delete to remove individual objects.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Publisher 2000.
