Default Should I use master Document for this?

I've got about 100 documents that can be used in trainings. Not every
document will be used for each training. I want the trainers to easily be
able to select the documents they want included, then print a manual with the
only the documents selected included, in the order they want, with consistent
formatting, and with the pages numbered correctly. Some of the trainers are
very computer shy, so I want it to be very easy. Should I use the "Master
Document" option? If not, any suggestions?

Check out fellow MVP, Bill Coan's DataPrompter at http://www.wordsite.com/
The BoilerPlate library feature will do what you want.

Master Documents are NOT the way to go.
