Could somebody help me, please? My question pertains to Word 2007.
I finished working on a cookbook and have printed out several copies. That got old quickly; just the cost of the ink alone is expensive. I talked to somebody at Staples and she said that if I'd put the book on a CD, she could print it and bind it for me (normally I print it out, then take the book to Staples for binding).
I have each chapter saved as a separate file. Each chapter cover page is also separate. My Spices and Herb chart is separate. As are the Indexes (one is by subject; the other is alphabetically indexed). Everything is done in Word.
Is there a way that I can merge all the chapters and files together to create a single file? Keep in mind that I need to keep all the formatting, headers, graphics, etc. unchanged.
I tried to simply add the Breads and Rolls chapter to my Appetizers and Beverages chapter....it worked, BUT all the formatting changed. And the Breads and Rolls header simply became Appetizers and Beverages. Not what I want. If I have to go through each chapter and re-do the formatting and such, it will take me forever. Not to mention that I had trouble trying to change the headers at the section breaks.
I'm thinking that it might be cheaper in the long run to just merge everything onto one CD and have Staples do the work than for me to try to print chapters as I go. I need about ten copies of the cookbook and that will take forever to print it out on my ink jet printer. Some of the people who've requested copies have said that they'd be most happy to pay for them. I still think it would be cheaper for Staples to do the work. I want to give them a CD and say, "Do it!"
Using 5.5 x 8.5-inch paper, which is essentially one 8.5 x 11-inch sheet of paper cut in half.
Can somebody help me with this? Thank you!
