FrameMaker is not necessarily your only choice, but when it comes to ease of use for working with sets of linked files it would be first choice ... read up on the .book model, where the ToC can deliver hyperlinks in the .pdf page and (when you ask for them) bookmarks in the .pdf bookmark list.

Your workflow sounds very much like something we've been handling successfully with FM for years. I maintain a Certification Document with 28 chapters and references to a couple of hundred external files (plans). Deliverable is a single .pdf of the document itself, plus all the external files in a defined set of directories. Publication is on an intranet server, an extranet server and CD.

Have fun!
