Actually, the processes for creating large books
in Word and Frame is remarkable similar in structure
if not in technique. In Frame, you create separate
chapter files and connect them with a book. In Word,
you create separate documents for chapters and
connect them manually in a document that contains
nothing but RD fields.

Each program has its strength and weakness; and
life is a series of trade-offs. In truth, I find
it no more strange learning to create books in
Word than learning to create non-breaking hyphens
in Frame.

But doesn't it strike you as a bit ... hmm, odd, that you have to learn
how to not overload an application? Couldn't that time (and ongoing
vigilance) not be spent better on other issues?
