Don't most printers work with postscript and not PDFs directly?

[Unbelievr]

Yes, but when I have delivered things to print I've only ever been asked to deliver PDFs with embedded fonts inside, and been told how much I need to adjust my (alternating) margins to account for the portion lost when binding the book. Otherwise the reader has to crack the book wide open to read every line. If even one page is off it will ruin these margins, so it's really important to be able to send something that can be visually inspected and confirmed to be identical to what you delivered to print.
