Agree with TheSicilian. There is not such thing as a PGN book. Some book authors release their books with the PGN database they used to create the book before hand tuning, and maybe this is what elcriollito is talking about.

Thecnically speaking there is one book that can be made out of a pgn file, and that is when the book is based in only one game, which is not a good book.

Cheers,
Using engines to cheat:
- It is not ethical,
- It is useless, nothing is gained (how can one be proud of a score earn with dishonesty?)
- You will be baned, sooner or later,
- It gives us (the true chess engine players) a bad reputation.
