It seems that when I paste links the file size jumps a lot.

The sheets are laid out like this - all the sheets have "lookup" formulas
which reference a master sheet. There are no macros or anything unusual.

I wanted to create an easy print sheet which references all of the other
sheets (except the master sheet). So I created a sheet, copied the format of
the others and pasted a link to them. The file size jumps immediately.

All I need is a print sheet, which makes it easy to print 25 other sheets at
once.

Any ideas?
