formatting glitches

Hello All,

I'm at my wits end with this issue and tried googling the answer to no avail so I'm hoping to get some help here.

I have the Sony PRS 650. We have a MacPro computer. I have some books on my computer but when I import the files to the library in epub and then to the reader, the formatting is weird. (It is weird in both the library and the reader). Some books show a new paragraph every 2 lines; others books have sentences that are spliced together and then repeated; and others have a combination of both these issues.

I downloaded Calibre and tried converting the mobi file to pdf and then transfer to my reader. Still has the problem. Had Calibre auto convert the mobi file to epub -- still has the problem.

My friend used the same books and hers was solved with the Calibre transfer of mobi to pdf.

What am I doing wrong? Anyway to fix this as it is difficult to enjoy a book when the formatting of sentences/paragraphs are so wonky.
