The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: When the customer imports a graphic into a figure box, the document file size grows disproportionately. For example, the customer imports a graphic which is 5K in size. The file was 20K before importing the graphic. After importing the graphic the file grows to 100K instead of the expected 25K. Solutions: When a graphic file is retrieved into a WordPerfect document, that graphic is converted into a graphic file format that WP can recognize, i.e., WPG format. This is almost exactly what GRAPHCNV.EXE does. In most cases this conversion adds bytes to the size of the converted information. Thus, the converted image is larger than the original image once it is converted and placed into the WP document. The customer can use the Graphic on Disk option to prevent the larger converted files from being placed in the document.
