Not sure if I'm posting in the right forum. I could not find one for
forms.
I have a 4-page forms document that takes an incredibly long time to open.
I
have not used forms before so I just assumed this was normal but recently
someone sent me a forms document that seemed equally complex and large
compared to my own and it opened very quickly.
Is there something I might be doing wrong? Are there any guidelines for
improving performance of forms documents? I could find nothing when
searching
for "form" and "slow". Any help would be greatly appreciated.
