What stores print PDFs?

I'm not the type to get on the boards and post huge topics like "Don't buy from..." but I will caution you to get a printed quote of charges before getting work done from Kinko's. I took three PDFs and one of the collections of floorplans to Kinko's to have them printed out. It took them a day, no problem, and yes, they did hesitate about the copyright. I had printed invoices from RPG Now, no problems.

Well, let's just say that I paid double the cost of all of the products I bought together just to have them printed in B/W. I was fuming by the time I left the store. This isn't really anti-Kinko's sentiment, but be wary of what kind of prices you're looking at. You may be better served buying a printer and doing it yourself.

[of course, now I have a ladyfriend who works in a shipping office with all of their super printers. My bound copies look excellent. ]

I tend not to have the bulk of my printing done in color. I have a color printer (very high quality) at work so I use that to print the front and back and any maps that are in color. Then I get the rest printed and bound at my local copy shop.

I can print a 128 page manual for about $5-8 this way. This is good for me as most of the stuff I am printing out this way will not see printed editions or the print editions are out of print now.
It also helps that they know me now at the print shop and sometimes I think they are giving me a break because of the amount of matrerial I have printed there. Work related and game related.
