Too many pages?

Is it possible to have too many pages in a BLOOM book?
I wanted to make a pdf of a book that is 23 pages long. While BLOOM will make pdfs for other books for me, it says there is not enough memory for this one.

Is it possible to have too many pages in a BLOOM book?

The amount of memory to make a PDF is a function largely of the number of pixels in the all of images. If the PDF maker can’t get all those pixels in memory at the same time, it dies. Usually when a book has this problem, we find that its images are way too packed with pixels to make sense for print or phone use; if you hover over an image, Bloom will tell you its dpi (dots per inch) is and what the recommended dpi is.

You can reduce your images using something like faststone resizer, which you should be able to point at your whole bloom book folder. You can also try turning on “Use less memory” in the options menu at the top of the Publish screen. If all that doesn’t work, please use Help:Report a problem and send us the book.
