It wouldn't make much sense for it to be a scanned PDF -- if you put
together the book in DTP software (as FanPro, and just about everyone
else in the world, does) you can save it to PDF with very little
trouble. Adobe InDesign, for example, exports to PDF directly -- I'd be
surprised if it didn't, what with PDF being an Adobe thing and all --
not to mention that _any_ Mac OS X program (lots of DTP is done on Macs)
that can send stuff to a printer, can save to PDF as well.
