I have read the 'PDF' sticky and my situation was not addressed there. I am a novice with this tool and have done a couple of conversions. I have been somewhat satisfied with my results. However, I have now encountered a pdf file that converts strange. First, issue is that the file begins as a ~7 MB pdf file and ends up as an ~80 MB file after conversion. When I upload it to my Kindle Fire the results are not pages of text. They are pages of images, behaving not all that different than a pdf file. Thus, the Kindle features such as text-changing or dictionary word look-up are not possible. Can some one provide any tips on how to fix this?

thank you.
