I know this is an old thread, but I was looking to do the same as the original poster and all the ways I tried looked like crap. But I finally found a way... exact copy. Looks great.

Only downside is the pdf is huge! Took at least 5 minutes to create a 400mb from a 400 something page epub file. It created a 500 something page pdf.

btw... I wanted to do this to print it at a print center (Fedex, Staples, etc, etc).

This was for a mac on OSX Snow Leopard....

Anyway... I started with a mobi so I went mobi to epub in Calibre, then open the epub in Adobe Digital Editions, print from there... then in the OSX print dialog that pops up, print to pdf. Depending on the size of the book, it may take quite a few minutes.
