3.2.5 Working with Large Documents

You can use Writer to work on large documents. Large documents can be either a single
file or a collection of files assembled into a single document.
Navigating in Large Documents
The Navigator tool displays information about the contents of a document. It also lets
you quickly jump to different elements. For example, you can use the Navigator to get
a quick overview of all images included in the document.
To open the Navigator, click Edit > Navigator. The elements listed in the Navigator
vary according to the document loaded in Writer.

Click an item in the Navigator to jump to that item in the document.
Using a Master Document to Create a Single
Document from Multiple Files
If you are working with a very large document, such as a book, you might find it easier
to manage the book with a master document, rather than keeping the book in a single
file. A master document enables you to quickly apply formatting changes to a large
document or to jump to each subdocument for editing.
