Exporting massive files

Question

Recently I've noticed that jpeg files I've been exporting from Indesign have been absolutely massive (over 8mbs). This is after I've chosen medium quality 150 ppi resolution. What's odd is that the same file a few months ago exported at 1 mb with the same settings. Has Indesign changed something?

Hello @genevieve_8847,I tried replicating this behavior on my end using both InDesign 2024 and 2025 but could not. Could you check if this happens with a specific file (and if yes) share a link to the sample file, exported JPEG, and screenshots of the settings used, after uploading the file to a file-sharing service, so I can check it on my end?Looking forward to hearing from you.Anubhav
