Explore options such as sopdf, PDFLRF and PDFread and see if you get results you like.
The reason I'm trying to convert them is exactly that, the device I'm using doesn't support PDFs. I don't have a proper E-Reader yet, so I'm using my Nintendo DS with DSLibris, which reads epub. Even though it's not proper, it still works fairly well, but suffers due to poorly formatted conversions from my PDFs to Epub.
