Hi Lin, No question in my mind: Separate files for each chapter, mainly because it easier to author, reorganize, and maintain separate FrameMaker documents. FrameMaker books work quite well for organizing documents. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.

I'm guessing there have been discussions about this in the past, and I plan to look for those, but I thought I'd toss this out there anyway. We're talking chapters that can run a couple hundred (or more) pages loaded with tables, graphics, and conditional text so that they can be used to single-source multiple documents (no, don't talk to me about DITA, my non-tech-writing boss wants it in unstructured). -- Lin Sims _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to [email protected] Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to [email protected] _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to [email protected] Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to [email protected]
