There are many programs and ways to convert pdfs to as I have the entire Adobe Master Suite.
Any help?

Once it's a PDF it will be a problem. All of the conversion problems are a result of the file having been converted
to PDF. It is the conversion to PDF that is the "Humpty Dumpty had a great fall" event that creates all of the problems.
If you have the full Adobe Acrobat Pro application you are probably best off using it to convert to some editable format. If available, convert to HTML. If it doesn't offer HTML export then use MS Word and then resave from Word as "HTML Filtered". You can then use Sigil to convert the HTML to an ePub and to use it as an editor to massage the errors.
