I am new to calibre and am trying to convert some PDFs to ePUBS. I know that it can get complicated but the PDFs are just straight text and basic formatting so I'm hoping it will work pretty well.

My problem is that when I do the conversion with just the default settings the resulting ePUB has only the first page (either the cover or first page of text if no cover). There is a second page just has lines. I have tried adjusting the settings but it makes no difference. No error messages occur.

I tried converting a html document to ePUB with just the default settings and it worked perfectly.

I am using:
calibre 0.7.13
mac osx 10.4.11

the PDFs I'm trying to convert are 56 MB and larger

Does anyone know what could be causing this problem in converting PDF --> ePUB? Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!
