I copied many pages of a PDF. file at it says it saves it in my clipboard. I
noticed that even after I close the file it still stays in the clipboard at
uses up memory. Why does this happen, and how can I clear it manually?

A block of memory is used for the clipboard. It doesn't matter what is in
it, no additional memory is being used. "Clearing" it wouldn't give you a
single byte more of available RAM.

That would imply that the amount of data you can put into the clipboard is
limited. Would you happen to know how large the reserved chunk of memory is?

Are you sure about that, dadiOH? My understanding is that a very large file or a
very large amount of copied data on the clipboard would use a lot more memory than a
copy of a single word.

Using Clipboard Viewer. Optionally, you can simply highlight and copy a
small bit of text. One source of small bits of text on your desktop are the
filenames. Click once, press Ctrl-C, then click somewhere else.

Whatever you copy to the clipboard stays there until you copy
something else. So to get rid of this stuff, bring up a text file (or
something) and copy just a tiny bit of it.

I think I have besides the clipboard problem, a problem that my memory does
not clear up fast, because when I do work that uses a lot of memory even
after I will close some I will have freezing problems.
