Right you are, Stuart. I had been remembering FM6 as the first version that included the separate files option. But a quick visit to my bookshelf proved that I was mistaken; that feature wasn't introduced until FM7.

But the fact is that the only way that you could get FM6 to produce separate PDFs for the chapters in a book was to print to file and use an asterisk in place of a filename. As I recall, there was no way to get separate PDFs directly; you always had to print to PS, then distill. It was about as far as you can get from default behavior.
