Even if the PDF is hand tweaked to fit the printed page properly, there is still no reason the original document cannot also be fixed in the same way. That way, when the pBook layout is done, you'd have a source document that would be the document for use in making the eBook editions. I know it sounds simple and really, it is. It's just that this sort of thing has to be put in place or it won't happen.
