Failed to Export the PDF file ????

I have been using InDesign for a while now(4 years) and have never had this problem.



This document has 138 pages and is 22.3MB. It also has a total of 67 images, all cmyk.



My computer is Windows XP Professional - 3.ooGHz - 2.00GB RAM. It has 232GB's total and 70GB's used, so I still have plenty of room.



I also have many files twice this size, but I've never had a problem with them.



Now, the problem that just started this afternoon is that when I go to make a PDF of this file, I always get this message.



''Failed to Export the PDF file.''



Does anyone know why?



Oh yeah, I've been working with computers for a LONG TIME and work with many imaging programs(Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop...) so I do know what I'm doing, but when it comes to the inside of the computer, I'm in Pre-K. So, try to explain to me in ''english''.



Thanx,

Sean

was there any more to the error message?

Recommendation. Exit all programs including InDesign. Run InDesign again and open document. Do NOT page through document. Immediately do export operation. Let us know whether that works. There have been some address space and/or memory leak problems that ''go away'' when restarting InDesign.
