Can I provide amazon with a PDF and have them print a book and send it to me?
OR do I have to offer it for sale on their site too?

Do I have to be a member of something 'special' on either site? Or can I do it as a normal user?
I couldn't find it searching amazon and haven't looked on cafepress yet.
I have a few PDFs I want to convert to books

Amazon is with Booksurge, and yes, you gotta sign up all special like.
Cafepress will probably be easier for a one off book, so long as you don't want a ton of flexibility.
The difficult part is reformatting the pdfs to their specifications (in both instances) real pain in the ***, real opportunity for a pdf ninja to open up a business offering to do it for people.
If you want to see an example of what booksurge can do, you can buy my book:

I've just barely broke even on the setup costs ($99) making it. With no factoring in the value of my time.
