Skin-on-Frame: Precoated fabric?

Greetings All,
Question:
Will store-bought, precoated, fabric shrink? I would guess that if it is not shrinkable after you get it on the frame, it may not be of much use. The subject of precoated fabric seems to have come up several times recently, but I don't recall reading that anyone had actually used it. My vested interest is that I am ready to skin my yak, but I haven't decided on a skin yet. Any advice appreciated.
Cheers,
Mike
