Lulu.com has some books of this form...

http://www.lulu.com/product/e-book/postgresql-84-official-documentation---volume-i-the-sql-language/5912706#detailsSection

Looking at "publishing information":

ISBN	978-1-59682-163-7
Publisher	Fultus Corporation
Language	English
Publication Date	 8 January 2009
Format	Adobe Encrypted PDF

Apparently this is a way of providing "proprietary encrypted
documentation"...

While I'd be fairly prepared to pay something for a printed copy of the
documentation (and would not be loathe to have someone profit from the
service of publishing it for me), I don't think I'll be buying encrypted
PDF files from anyone just now!
