Ann, I didn't use their PDF workflow, but I helped one of my workshop classmates do one. You start with their PDF template to do the layout for a book that fits the available publishing sizes and papers. The templates take into account sizing, paper thickness, text and graphics limits, etc etc. PDFs that don't fit what's available for the automated printing mechanisms are rejected.
If you design your book freehand, you can then use one of the templates as a layer to adjust it to suit, but IMO that's a lot more work. What I did for my book was to use the Book module in Lightroom. For those occasions when a page design I wanted didn't fit the available templates, I formatted the page as a high resolution image file first and then inserted that as a full bleed image into an available template. It worked pretty well.
