InDesign crash (shut down) when export to PDF

[PWLSH]

Help please!

When I tried to export to a PDF, either high res or smallest file, InDesign crashed (shut down) without any warning. This didn't happen before. 

InDesign 2020 (already the latest version)

File size: 322MB (292 A4 pages)

OS: Windows 10

Thanks!

Hi PWLSH,

are any PNG graphics placed in the document?

If yes, could you try to exchange them with TIFF or JPEG images?

Thanks,
