I am an engineer that works with converted pdf's created from Autocad. Normally I work with piping/line diagrams. In the past, my fellows workers and I have to them seperate the various components with hi-lighters and rulers. There is no copyright issues once the drawings are converted to pdf's per the engineering company. My team and I will be creating in the neighborhood of 1k or more of the these drawings initially and then each time a new revision is issued then they will have to be "re-colored." I am trying to bring this process out of the dark ages and create a professional looking document when we finished.

What I need to know is, what photoshop version is the most appropriate for my purpose? I can provide a cropped sample of one of the drawings as they are 11"x17" IRL.

Without seeing the images and precisely what you are doing...My canned answer would be that CS5, being the newest, will be the most robust.

More or less +1 to the above, I think Auto-Cad produces .EPS format that pretty much all (read all) PS versions should accept. Someone will correct me if I am wrong.
