Ahem, I did. 291 pages, more than 80 images, footnotes, toc and
index, all with Word97. Wrote it in separate docs and finally
put the whole thing together. Took me 2 working days to manually
correct pagebreaks, footnotes, image-descriptions, Pagenumbers
in toc, etc.
Trying to make a point that you *can* do a large doc in Word!
Also you could do large documents in stones some 4000 yrs ago!
Just a matter of time and manpower.
