It's in today's build at:
Command: Export Book of Layouts
Allows the creation of a single PDF containing a variety of layouts
(e.g. Full Score and individual parts). The layouts can have different
font sizes etc, unlike the Append option in the Print View.
Location: Main Menu ▶ File ▶ Export As
Internal Name: ExportBook
I have in mind a few tweaks to make the construction of the book more
transparent, but I think it is good to go.
With this command I think you could construct a book comprising scores
from different Denemo files... (not tested).

Hi Richard,
I've just tried it out on a 128 measure piece.
It works fine though, as you say, it would be nice if
* it could print out different parts with different score sizes
(could be difficult)
* if the score size chosen wasn't always the last one
* if the individual parts could start on a new page, and
* if the version didn't get printed out for each part, in a
stack!
All of these (except perhaps the last) are not possible at present
with
LilyPond (*) so I have created a way to do this from Denemo.
Attached is a Scheme script which allows you to create a "Book"
comprizing various layouts which the command will combine together
as a
final PDF. You have to invoke the command once for each layout you
want
to include in the book.
It is quite clunky but I think it is working - if you can test it
out
on Windows that would be helpful.

(*) I asked on the LilyPond mailing list

and it is a deep-rooted problem :(
