If you don't mind continuous page numbering for the two volumes, I'd suggest creating it as one document (with child documents as convenient -- I usually use one for each chapter) using a document class which uses Parts (such as the various book classes), and put each volume into a Part. Then generate a PDF file for the whole book and use PDFTK to split it into the two volumes. You could use this tool to add a copy of the TOC to the second volume if desired. If you want separate page numbering for each volume, it's a bit more complicated. You would need to reset the page number at the beginning of Part 2, but I think this would give problems with cross references, the table of contents and the index. -- Les ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
