I agree about Calibre -- it was a game saver, when I got my Kobo and saw
how badly PDFs rendered on it.  My one problem with Calibre is it still
doesn't handle conversion of PDFs with 2 columns.  Although I haven't
tried the latest updates...

It isn't obvious what how to deal with these: pdf's with 2 columns
often have diagrams and tables that extend the full width of the page.

I have not used it since I have not needed it, but apparently http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/10/briss-trims-and-repaginates-pdfs-for-better-e-reading/ can handle this.

Also, the calibre dev said in 2010 that 2-column PDF conversion code was in calibre as of then, in dev versions... so maybe calibre even does it natively now.

Also, this may help with converting pesky things in calibre http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=99258
