Post Document splitting

Hi,

I have a 290-300 page document that i'm trying to edit. Due to its size it is an absolute slug. Is there any way to go about splitting the document, but keeping all the formatting that I have in the main document?
I don't know how many times I need to split the document - maybe 9 or 10 times? I could do more or less if needed though.

Thanks,


Avril

I have a similar document although maybe not as large as the one you speak of. Depending on how you have the document configured (sections, chapters, etc.) you could save portions of the document (in my case, I save them by Chapters) with sequential file names (i.e., Chapter 1, Chapter 2, etc.). You should save the portions from the original file thus retaining the original formatting structure.

In my case, when I finish the document I combine the sequential files into one document and save to .pdf format (for subsequent review/comment from my peers).

That is just how I do it. Others may have different/better solutions.

Thanks very much for your feedback! I have no way to do it at the moment, so your way is definitely better!
