You read the sticky about the limitations of converting PDF files. The PDF viewer is viewing the pdf which is not a simple document with hard and soft line breaks and nice clean paragraphs it is much more compicated than that. Even when using Adobe Professional to export a PDF to html the resulting html isn't perfect and has some sentence breaks where they don't belong and requires a lot of editing to turn it into a passable epub.

Your best bet might be to cite specific examples with a PDF file to go with it and see if that example can be corrected or handled correctly.
