Josieb1 is right, getting a hassle free conversion from PDF to ebook formats doesn't happen but here's a couple of things to try

Preferences->Conversion->Look and Feel->Keep ligatures check it - and that may fix your double ell's

Preferences->Input Options->PDF Input->Line Unwrapping factor - tweak it down a bit, if that doesn't reduce the split lines, tweak it up a bit - a bit is about .05 units

Try Mobicreator, there's a link in the sticky to which PeterT posted a link - it produces PRC's which Calibre will convert without any glitches,

Try Hamster Soft's converter (Google will find it), I have on occasions got a good result from it - be careful with the install its full of Open Candy - do a custom install and read the "do you want this c**p" dialogues carefully.

I think the PDF Print reference is probably a reference to a PDF Print Driver - there are many implementations, they install as a print driver and are then accessible to any program with a Print capability - I use one from Bullzip. Search for PDF Print Driver <your Operating system>.
