    You're right, especially about the page count. If we aren't doing a 845
page book, I think we should just give it up. I got a 846 page book once and
it was lousy.

    All joking aside, if multiple people are going to work on a book,
choosing a common electronic format is the first step, but more than a
little debate is counterproductive. *.doc is common enough and has enough
emulators. Full MSWord .doc has some features that make writing a manual
much easier.
