Error System.OutOfMemoryException' occurred in mscorlib.dll when Export to PDF

[GregoryDillon]

I'm hoping, wishing, begging, somebody can help here.   I'm trying to export the Map to a PDF with a modified version of PDFExport.cs sample (using silverPDF).  My goal is to export the map to various paper sizes like 8.5 x 11,   8.5 x 14, 11 x 17, 24 x 18, 48 x 36.   In order to do this, I must create a seperate map specifically for generating the PDF and then size it to the paper and then add the layers and adjust the extent to match the extent and layers visible on the web page map.

I almost have it working, but when I set the paper 48 x 36 it get the error System.OutOfMemoryException' occurred in mscorlib.dll (this happens in the "PngEncoder" class's routine "Encode" of PDFExport.cs - see below).   I've tried freeing up layers by setting them to null at the earliest possible point so that the system might squeek by with enough memory.   Has anybody else see this problem and what did you do to get around it.    Anybody have any sample code that does what I'm trying to do.
