Each scanned item should denote its origin. For example, all the
GURPS Conan supplements have this information at the bottom of their Amazon blurbs:

(This is a reprint of a GURPS Third Edition product. Its interior is based on a scanned copy of the most-recent print version, so there will be imperfections compared to modern all-digital releases.)

In general, anything that was previously published prior to the mid-1990s will be based on a scanned copy. (At present, I believe the only scanned items we're offering as POD are the
GURPS Conan books and
Man to Man.)
I hope this helps!
