Because PDF is not a "book" format, but a digital representation of a printed page. It doesn't contain paragraphs, sentences, or even words, but simply instructions of the form "draw such-and-such a shape at these coordinates".

The best way to "convert" a PDF document into a proper eBook format is to use a good OCR program.
