More often than not, the PDF wasn't made properly. Export-to-PDF from many programs doesn't create tagged, reflowable PDFs; you get PDFs with a hard return at the end of every line of text.
The real issue is publishers considering PDF as a "looks just like the printed book!" format, instead of treating it like just another ebook format that they'll have to consider how to set up for ebook reading.
