I am seeking your opinion and direction. I just lost part of a very
large word document; over 1 GB in size. I sometimes drive thousands of
miles to research something. I scan all documents, photograph
documents and the location; then insert the JPG image files into a Word
document, where the JPG image files are explained, questions asked, and
assumptions made.

There can many chapters of 500 MB file size; some chapters might be as
small as 50 MB, or maybe 25 MB.

I regularly study several subjects (books) at one time; each book with
many chapters. Occasionally, a chapter in one book needs to be added
to another book. Considering each chapters'' size, and considering
the books overall size, how should I write and store these documents to
make the possibility of file loose and corruption to a minimum?

In another project, I collect HTML, txt, JPG, PDF and other file types
that I would like to put them into a Word "book" with references and
notes. Is there a way to call the file to be printed from word, and
allow the header and footer to be on each page printed on the "Called
Files?"

Can the "Called Files" be an "exhibit" in Word; where the printing
format selected by the originator be maintained?

Thanks.


Thanks
