I have an 50 MB Indesign book file with +800 images. I would like to convert it to ebook. How can I deal with the size? I know that images can be compressed but any other options? Should I divide it to chapters or parts?

Ebook is text. On top of that, ebook format compresses the text. Reorganising ebook, adding TOC etc... will make very little difference.
Images compression will have a major impact on the file size.
On the other hand - just do it. Ebook file is going to be smaller than InDesign book.

Thanks! And what is an acceptable size for an ebook? – Frederick Hose Aug 10 '17 at 11:16

I do not think there is a limit. Typical size is 1-2 mb but with images it could be more than that – Nicolai Kant Aug 10 '17 at 15:20
