Excel - No more fonts can be added to this document

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel

Have created a spreadsheet with 7 worksheets, each with approx 140 lines of data, 12-15 columns wide. 3 of the worksheets have 13 graphs on each worksheet. Excel crashes when additional graphs are attempted.

The main issue: When I attempt to save the spreadsheet, I get an error message stating "No more fonts can be saved on this worksheet." A second error message states that "Document not saved."

This document originated on Mac Excel 2008 and is not imported from PC Excel. I am at a standstill on this and need assistance.

It's almost certainly the graphs. This MSKB article describes the
problem in WinXL versions, but I believe it's the same root cause:

Thank you for taking the time to respond to my problem. I agree with the root cause and have seen the referenced article. Not sure however how to respond to the recommendations as the article references older PC-based versions and recommendations, not Mac. For example, when selecting the chart format options and font, there are no options close to the check box selection noted in the article.
