Hi Sallie,
What seems to have happened, is that as you have increased the 'clarity'
(resolution) of the photo's, you've inadvertently increased the size of
each image dramatically. The increase in size is often close to
exponential, so for example, doubling the 'clarity' or resolution can
increase the size of the image file by ten times.
This is always a juggling act when dealing with a document with lots of
images in it.
I don't think just zipping the file will give you the kind of
compression you need.
As someone else has suggested, you will have to go through and change
each image manually. To do that, you might try software like
'Irfranview' (free and downloadable here
<http://www.webattack.com/dlnow/dlnow.dll?Inc=No&ID=101840>).
With that, you will be able to play with the resolution and the amount
of compression applied to each .jpg file.
You will be able to see the size of the file before and after each
change...
But it sounds like you have a lot of images in that file, and you may
never get the size of the publication down to an acceptable size while
maintaining acceptable quality in the images.
You might try and split the document into two or more sections and email
those separately.
Hope that helps.

: There is a few way to do it.
: If you got publisher, just open that file with it,
:provided it does not
: hang on you, and then choose save as from the file
:menu. Choose a folder
: of your choice if you want to save into jpeg format as
:it will just grow
: in file, saving one page into one jpeg each if I am not wrong.
: Eventually, you can pick the one you want, I meant
:which page and then
: you can resize them in MS photo editor or get a program
:called IrfanView
: and resize it.
: Since your publisher file is too big, so I am unable to
:see what's the
: tick about it. I will just have to stab in the dark for you.
: Report back if you got any problem.
