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.

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.
A master document is a Writer document that serves as a container for multiple Writer
files. You can maintain chapters or other subdocuments as individual files collected in
the master document. Master documents are also useful if multiple people are working
on a document. You can separate each person's portion of the document into subdocu-
ments collected in a master document, allowing multiple writers to work on their sub-
documents at the same time without fear of overwriting other people's work.
