PDF reflow is not something to count on.

That is my experience too. With programs like ABBYY you can transform any PDF into PDF/A, so it is readable like text: theoretically, that is. If there a no pictures, just text, you get pretty good results. The resulting file can be reflowed, often very well. If there are many pictures, unusual fonts etc. you will not be very happy ...
