what should be nice would be local print stores with hardbound capability (and R°V° laser printer). This have nothing to do with openSUSE but should happen soon, there is a market for that
In order to make that feasible, one thing that will have to happen is to supply PDFs with suitable Open Prepress attachments and impositions and maybe cut marks and whatnot. Basically, a PDF suitable for bound printing is not one you'd use for on-line viewing or for small-scale, non-bound printing on laser printers at home or in the typical office. Presumably these PDFs are already being created for the bound manuals in the commercial releases, so there shouldn't be a problem making them available, but it would need to be done to enable end-user printing of bound manuals at local, low-volume print shops (e.g., FedEx / Kinko's in the States).
