She's having problems with it now. It contains many tables and =
cross-references, rather than graphics (which may or may not be relevant =
to the stability of the document).
Also, techniques like cleaning the document up are good if you have sole =
ownership and/or good control of the document, but it is likely to be =
edited by people with a variety of skills, who simply won't do it.
And yes, I know, getting them to do something a bit complex like =
splitting the doc and x-ref across files will be challenging for them, =
but they are more likely to come and ask how it works if it's something =
totally foreign, rather than something they can quietly stuff up and =
leave for the next person.

Hi Elizabeth,
A document of 300 pages is hardly massive and is comfortably within =
Word's
ability to handle as a single document. Word has been able to handle
documents of this size for nearly a decade.
If your friend is struggling then I recommend someone look at the =
graphics
or legacy paragraph marks instead.
