prs505 uses 'PDF reflow', which Kindle lacks. It only works well with properly tagged PDFs, with a properly defined reading order, or PDFs with simple layout (e.g. primarily pages of text). Pan/Zoom may well be better when those conditions are not met, but better still would be to have PDF reflow as an option as well, since that does work better for docs without many images and charts.
