Tom – You've got a 25+ megabyte swap file there, buddy! I don't know if its the font, or not, but if you can make some of the attributes hidden, or use ROMANS for editing, and ROMANT for plotting, that might help. Essentially, you've got a drawing that's probably generating a huge amount of display vectors, and AutoCAD has to keep track of each one of them. Usually, I advocate using a font that comes in two versions – one used for display and editing, and the other for plotting. Just swap out .SHX files when you're going to plot the drawing. -TonyT.
