Paste error message: Cannot Load Bitmap into Memory

I am trying to do a copy’n’paste, Microsoft Powerpoint 2007 slide copy, to Notes 8.5 client paste, Vista 64, and I am seeing two errors:

Straight paste:

Cannot Load Bitmap into Memory

error message. Nothing happens.

Paste Special on Client Side:

This works, more or less, but the pasted image is too small, and if I try to scale it back up so that it goes across the screen, it loses clarity. It’s almost as if the bitmap is somehow too condensed or has not enough bits.

Subject: Also on Vista 32

It was easy enough to repeat, so I tried this on a Vista 32 laptop, again Notes 8.5, and had similar results. Straight paste gets the:

Cannot Load Bitmap into memory

error message popup, it’s definitely on the Notes end, as the title says:

IBM Lotus Notes

and when I paste special, the image is too small (about 1/3rd. screen width)
