Noticed there was a "conversion" forum after the fact. Thanks for the bounce to the appropriate area, and tell your cat hi.

It's the contrast of the text that's horrible (via send to kindle e-mail address with convert in subject). Read about Calibre's problems with pdf, was just hoping there was a fix in settings that helped the paragraph structure problem I've run into.
Calibre formats paragraphs from these pdf (300 from a series I'm converting) like below in quotes.
Sentence three should be sentence two, sentence four should be three, etc. It replaces every other sentence like that throughout the whole text:

"time makes the good old days look good, no? In thinking about the recent battles over
much about space, so space doesn't get funded. Back in the Apollo days, people loved
NASA's budget, it seems like the problem is simply citizen support. People don't care that the space program! A majority of Americans opposed the government funding human trips to the moon both before (July 1967) and after (April 1970) Neil Armstrong took a giant leap for mankind."
