Unless you put an SF command, to set the starting footnote number,
at the top of each file. But you'd also have to embed commands to
increment page numbers, counters, etc., and you'd lose a unified
table of contents and index, if any -- all the things that chain-
printing handles behind the scenes. Still, if the document doesn't
have too many of these elements, file-by-file printing may be an
option.

But chain-printing *should* work. How about embedding 
at the top of each constituent file? In theory, there should be no
difference, but....
