Hi David,

it's mainly the bitmap image and cell cache data that makes Mathematica
notebooks too fat for transmission. However, this data can be safely
discarded before transmitting a notebook file because it will be restored
automatically by the Mathematica frontend upon loading the notebook. You can
use Tim Wichmann's rmnbcache tool to strip cache data from notebooks (see
the following URL).
