The two sizes are:
RISCOS - 4935352 Bytes
PC - 4820 Kb

When clicked on in windows it says 'this document uses23 fonts which 
are not present' etc and on selecting 'temporary replacement' or 
'pemanent replacement' the first page flashes up briefly and then the 
error 'empty input file' appears.

It stays on the icon bar and if you select 'maximise' once again the 
first page only flashes briefly on the screen.

I have tried creating a one page document in RISCOS and that transfers 
to the PC quite happily, unfortunaely it is my magazines that I need 
to work on, not always new documents.

FWIW if I rename the document on the PC and then transfer it back to 
the Iyonix, and set the type to OvnPro it loads perfectly into RISCOS 
OvPro so that would seem to suggest that it is not being corrupted in 
any way.

I am away till next Sunday now but will look forward to any 
suggestions on my return.
