Default Placement of endnotes

I'm finishing up a book. The following bullet points are the instructions of
my publisher:
€’ Except for the front matter and artwork (figures and tables), the entire
manuscript text should be paginated sequentially and saved in separate files
for each chapter.
€’ For all authored books, notes and references will appear in the back matter.

Here is my problem. If I save each chapter as a separate file, then the
endnotes for each chapter appear at the end of that chapter. What the
publisher wants is for chapters to follow each other with sequential
pagination, and for all the endnotes for all the chapters to collectively
appear at the end of the manuscript as separate "back matter."
I find that the only way to have all endnotes appear at the end is to save
the entire manuscript as one file (which they dont want).
Any help will be appreciated! Thanks.

Default Placement of endnotes

Your publisher is being a pain in the neck.

You could do it by opening each chapter, going to the end, selecting
all the endnotes (put cursor in any note, Ctrl-A), and Copy-Paste into
a new document. (If the second chapter's notes want to continue the
numbering from the first chapter, then right-click in the first one
and choose Restart Numbering.)

Default Placement of endnotes

Thanks. Actually, I already tried that. In the new document with just the
endnotes, all the endnotes end up being numbered 1 (!!). I could of course
manually number them sequentially, but that's crazy.
Also, while it's possible to paste (ctrl-V), it's not possible to cut
(ctrl-X) the endnotes out of the bottom of each chapter. The only way to do
it is hit the backspace button and keep it pressed (also crazy).
Unless I'm doing something wrong...

Default Placement of endnotes

I think you need to explain to your publisher that if the endnotes are set
as "End of document," then when the chapters are combined into a single
document, the endnotes will be at the end (the *very* end unless the
instructions at
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...TextAfterNotes
are followed).

What your publisher is requesting is a workflow that was easily supplied
when manuscripts were typed (on a typewriter). You could equally well have
created this format (though rather more easily than with a typewriter) if
you had been forewarned. In order to do so, you'll need to define numbered
styles in the Endnotes document that restart after whatever heading
intervenes (the chapter number, for example). In the chapters, use
superscripted SEQ fields for the footnote reference marks.
