Hi Linda: I'm doing something similar except I haven't got the version control system part yet. I'm assured by the software guys that I can do this. We're using the Python scripting language and the FDK.
As for generating PDFs, we had that bad link problem unless we used the "Create Named Destinations" check box. However, the files were so bloated that we would have to open the files in Acrobat after and do a bunch of things, including setting security. We tried using AutoIT for that, but it was pretty unstable because it's mimicking keystrokes and it depends on the focus staying on Acrobat while it does its thing. Sometimes it didn't work and with no changes to the code, sometimes it would. Then we discovered Microtype's Timesavers to unbloat the files and we didn't have to get into AutoIT at all. What a relief! Oh, and using AutoIT would also have tied us to a version of Acrobat because different versions might use different keystrokes to do the same thing; unless we wanted to rewrite the code whenever we upgraded. Hope that helps.
