BookMaker Page Limitations? (11/19/93)

Q: Does the Newton BookMaker have limitations concerning the size of books or page count?

A: The current page limitation of BookMaker is 16 million pages, a very unlikely size to be exceeded. However, since the entire book is held in memory during the build process, you need to have enough application heap space allocated to the BookMaker desktop application. If there is not enough RAM available on your desktop computer to process a book, you can divide it into smaller parts and link them with the .chain command.
