Now that you have separate InDesign documents for each part or chapter in your book, you’ll combine all the documents using the Book feature. The Book feature will allow you to synchronize styles throughout all your booked documents, but again, it’s not a requirement, and it doesn’t happen automatically. Books look better when margins and styles are consistent throughout, but it’s not a requirement. If you’ve already created separate InDesign files for your chapters, you can combine them using the Book feature just fine as long as they all have the same trim size. You’ll be gathering several InDesign documents into one Book file to create a book. If you’re just getting started on your chapters, it’s best to design one of your more complex chapters first, then use that chapter as a template for all the remaining ones (i.e., “Save As” Chapter 1, delete all the original chapter’s text, place the Chapter 1 text, and thereby leave the trim size, margins, and styles intact and consistent among all chapters).

In fact, they are so big that you thought it would be smart to divide the book into separate documents for parts or chapters. InDesign’s Book feature can be handy! Let’s say you’re working on a book with lots of images and/or chapters.
