Aldus says Aldus error 1326 can be avoided by replacing your system file
every few months with a fresh copy.  Why? some kind of text error arises
which starts up the Apple Resource Manager, which has a bug.  They also
told me (today, phone support) to use the "Shortcuts" (key commands) in
every possible case and to seriously avoid moving text around by click-
and-drag mousing.  When error 1332, 1328, 1326 et al. arise, they
suggest NOT DELETING the offending text; but rather to try to click the
mouse fifteen or twenty times until the error box clears(maybe) and if
it does, drag the offending text off the pasteboard and just ignore it.  They
say also you may cut your text out,into scrapbook, then close your file and'
open a new file and paste it in as a halfway fix (but your new pages will 
not be connected).
   I'm using P-Maker 1.2 on a 512K fat old mac, 400K internal, 800 external.
