Add-a-Chapter, Joiner, and Burster Wizards

If you choose to keep a chapter or several chapters in separate files, you can use the Add-a-Chapter Wizard to create a new file with all the formats you defined in the first file, i.e., the one containing chapter one. This will ensure consistency throughout your finished manuscript. After using the wizard once, she'll remember where your files are located and the number of the next chapter.

As you progress, you may wish to join these separate files into one large file, with the sequential page numbers and chapter numbers.  You can use the Joiner Wizard, select the folder that contains your chapters, and joiner will create a new file containing all  the chapters, repaginated and with the chapter numbers reordered.  You can run Joiner as many times as you like, updating or even creating new files that have different chapter order.  Print your entire manuscript for submission to an agent or editor.

Burster Wizard is Joiner in reverse, it takes a Wizard formatted manuscript and burst it into separate chapter-files. The wizard will obtain the title from your multi-chapter document and the chapter format. She will create separate files, each with a chapter, and store them in a folder with a name similar to the manuscript title. You can locate these files under My Documents\My Books. These bite size pieces are great for editing and running Ghost Reviewer. Whenever you need to look at a contiguous version, run Joiner.
