Here is another vote for a separate file per chapter. Also make your
images references and resize them (120ppi and less than your page width
is a good rule of thumb).

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.

Subject: [Framers] Pros/Cons: Separate file per chapter, or one
REALLY BIG
FILE for an entire book
Pretty much what it says in the title. 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).
