I have a few SNES NTSC games that the instruction manuals have seen better days (water damage, pages missing, defacing etc), i have found a few sites that have pdf files of game manuals. I am wondering what is the best material to use to get a professional printing company to print these out, ideally i would want them to be the same meterial originally used?. Also any recommendations any other sites that host manuals or a company that does the lot, such as having the pdf files for these manauls and also prints them out and sends them to you?
You won't get a professional printer to reproduce copyrighted material. Besides that, if you wanted it to look the same, you'd need the original artwork (NOT a scan), the right paper stock and you'd be printing it litho, which means you'd need a very large run for a printer to be bothered to set up a plate. You're best off looking on eBay or local game shops for a manual - it'd be FAR cheaper.
