I'll bet I've written a dozen messages on this problem. I know I've written 
o
you before about saving images. I just made up a test WP7 file containing a
complex 300 dpi greyscale image and two 400 dpi color images. I also included
4 pages of text consisting of Abbott & Costello's original "Who's on First"
routine. This is a 7 page "wpd" file. This file can be placed on a 3.5 floppy 
with room to spare (not compressed).
You really should learn how to save images. You can import a 400 dpi image 
containing 176389 unique colors saved as an 8"x10" JPG file into a "wpd" file 
and be able to put it on a 3.5 floppy in uncompressed mode.
I will be glad to send you these files for confirmation purposes.
