That is what I am doing right now, but I wanted to automate it. Kourosh

Thank you Thibaut. TeX-command-buffer is a very neat solution for when I am working on these documents individually and want a quick preview. Thanks for pointing that out. But if possible, I am looking to automatically generate different PDF files (4 in the above example) with one command. The particular case that I need this is for NIH grant proposals, where they need individual documents and one big reference file containing all the references throughout out the proposal. Kourosh

See this stackexchange question: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/87414/per-chapter-bibliographies-in-biblatex. If individual chapter biographies are not necessary then why not use something like PDFtk to split the master pdf into chapter pdfs? Good luck.

The bibliography is more tricky, I don't know if there is a solution. Also, numbers and references will be local to the chapter: you will get files which are suitable for a quick preview, but concatenating them will not be as good as compiling the whole document together.

I'm not sure how you plan to do that, but one solution comes to my mind is using \includeonly in the preamble and control the output with it. See here for details: http://latexref.xyz/_005cinclude-_0026-_005cincludeonly.html Best, Arash
