From what I understand, it sounds like each page is unique, in other
words you don't continue linking to the next page, is that right?
If that's the case, you can make your text frames, then copy the page
over and over. What you won't copy is any linking that was on the
original, but linking is pretty easy. If you have to individually enter
or load the text for each page anyway, that's not so much more work.
