This method may produce decent results when a book is printed to a single 
PDF file, but it fails when a book is printed to multiple PDF (each chapter 
becoming a separate PDF).
Cross-file links are generated properly, pointing to the expected 
chapter.PDF files; but the PDF files are named differently (with a book 
name prefix), and therefore all cross-file links are bad.

For example, the sample ecology book included with FrameMaker generates the 
following PDFs when "printed to PDF" as multiple PDFs:
ecology.book(ecologyTOC.pdf
ecology.book(resource.pdf
ecology.book(concern.pdf
ecology.book(response.pdf
ecology.book(ecologyIX.pdf
