If you describe exactly where you're getting the file is full messages,
I maybe able to help. If you're getting them in speechbox mode, then add
more pages to your clipboard before going into speechbox mode, which
will make the buffer for storing the text to be spoken bigger. If you're
getting file is full in other circumstances, then you'll need to
describe them.

To subscribe to the fs support list, send an email to 

support-request at lists.freedomscientific.com

Leave the subject blank. In the body of the message put the line

subscribe

You'll get a reply from the list serve, and just follow the instructions
you find in that to confirm the subscription. This list is only meant
for discussion of the legacy notetakers such as the bns 640/2000, and
the Millennium units. It isn't meant for discussion of openbook, jfw, or
pac mate, since there are separate lists for discussing those. Hth.
