    No, is the idea that that will remove all these unused blocks and such that are making the file so large? Do you know what the file size limit is for attachments?

    I did some purging. The new file size is 947 kb. It still won't attach though. No idea why.

    Unfortunately not. This is all for work and they have it blocked here. There's the old add an "s" to "http" trick, but that doesn't work for most sites including dropbox.

    Can you try please to transfer the trouble-maker text entity to a new, empty drawing? Just test if still present the said behavior and try to attach that file - it should be considerably smaller then current one.

    Is it possible the text you are trying to rotate is a civil 3d label and not mtext?

    I would think that file would be considerably smaller as well, but it is not. The same thing happens to the text.
