As far as I know (created a poster using beamer class with latex a long
time ago) nothing special is needed. However, in my experience, you need
to include external graphics (eps,eps,jpg etc.) in the document
carefully and of high resolution. Text should not give you any problem.

I am assuming here that you want to create a single PDF (with all the
chapters) initially and then split it.

There are numerous tools for splitting PDFs. For example, for ubuntu
(linux),

However, many other tools are available for other operating systems. Try
googling.
