Please use the updated .sla version - annotations are better! Thanks

This is a duplicate of issue 0004189. Closing this issue consequently.

Side note : I can export your test files without problem in 1.3.3.x on my old laptop equipped with 1 GB RAM. Big image handling is a known weakness of 1.3.3.x tho, but no fix will be made for this end of life series as it would require to rewrite all the image export code. 1.3.5 and newer development versions have already noticeable improvements here (use 2x less RAM when exporting images) and are more resistant against memory allocation failures (the most probable cause of your crash).
