InDesign shuts down at export

[astridb50948402]

Hi!

My InDesing closes down when I try to export to pdf. No PDF is produced. 

Also when I try to share for review the application closes down.

I have tried to restart the computer ansd reinstall InDesign. It did not help...

I am stuck. Any suggestions?

What operating system and hardware are you using?

[astridb50948402]

Windows 10 Pro v. 20H2

i5-7200U CPU @ 2.50GHz 2.70 GHz
RAM 8,00 GB

8GB is below the recommended 16GB. It's also the cheapest possible upgrade.

I see. I definitely would like to upgrade at some point.

Now I have to create a pdf to have my project reviewed. Everything worked as normal on Friday. All of a sudden it crashes. I didn't make any changes to the document except correcting one word in the text...

Is it only that one document? If so, try to export half. Then do the other half.

Keep doing that until you find the page with some kind of corruption.

I solved it. I made a new document and moved all elements over. That seemes to have solved the problem. 

Thank you for your advice. If I have similar problems in the future I will try your method.
