I use Acrobat, but there are plenty of other, free tools that can handle this task as well, if not even more efficiently.
But since I'm using Acrobat, I usually also take the opportunity to clean up the metadata (which is often just junk) and make sure the page numbers shown on each page match the PDF page number tags that are used by the viewer to reference pages and navigate with (they sometimes don't, particularly with PDFs of books which use different numbering sequences for different parts of the book, e.g. roman numerals to number preface pages etc.). So that if the TOC or index says something is on page 43, you can tell Kindle to Go To page '43' and wind up on the right page.
Note that disparity in PDF page labels reflects the PDF author's lack of attention to detail, and there's nothing Kindle or any other PDF viewer can or should do to correct it. However since Kindle does not (yet) support PDF links it is more important that the PDF page labels be 'correct' than it would be if you could just click on a link and go to the right place.
