It's incorrect to say that use of \input is discouraged. The \input and 
\include commands have two different purposes. For example, in most 
cases, it would be wrong to do something like...

        \begin{abstract}
                \include{abstract_text}
        \end{abstract}

It would be just as bad to do something like:

        \input{chapter1}

In particular, consider if chapter1 (or abstract_text) didn't exist or 
if I was using chapter-level bibliographies.

        Of course, there's also

        \InputIfFileExists

which is another commonly-used LaTeX construct (that probably works with 
pdfsync, but I didn't test that).


        Regardless, both \input and \include work fine with pdfsync, and 
there's no reason why you shouldn't be using *BOTH* in a single 
document. In fact, in many cases you'd be wrong to blindly swap one for 
the other.
