I just got a kindle (not DX) and want to use it to read scientific papers on my commute. All my articles are organized as PDFs in Papers (mekentosj) on my Mac (don't like the iphone for reading articles). Problems I have encountered...
- Text too small and not able to change it, even when kindle in landscape
- Two or three columns in article get concatenated and garbled on conversion
- Loss of graphics (but this is relatively minor if the other two could be fixed).

Have experimented with calibre after some surfing of forums, but still having problems. Does anyone have good suggestions.
