Reply To: One file OR several files?

I'll probably stick to separate files. One file per chapter. It's a “parts” type catalog. Very heavy with images, descriptions and small part lists. Each chapter will have their own master pages and although the master page layout is similar in structure, the colors and titles change from chapter to chapter. 

@Eugene T:  I know what “chapter variables” sort of do but I'm having a hard time trying to justify the use. Being the changes on he Master happen across the board. Can you give me any examples/insight into the use of “Chapter variables”. Thanks!

PS-> In case anyone is interested in the type of catalog, here is a link to the PDF of the last one.
