Well, if you have very long document, you should consider using Master 
Document where you write every chapter in separate document and Master 
Document acts as container. You don't edit Master Document, you just 
print it.

Having long text splitted in smaller chunks may help you with the 
problem. Just remember to send all chapters (as separate documents) to 
your editor.

Consult documentation about this.
