I've never read a PDF on my Kindle Paperwhite but I think it's just like any other ebook. If I'm correct, you just have to use Calibre to transfer it to your Kindle. Or you can just drag and drop the PDF file to the 'documents' folder found in the root of the Kindle when connected to the laptop.

The Paperwhite can read PDF files natively, this means that you won't have to convert the file. You won't be able to change the font size, line spacing, etc. if you want these features, you're going to have to convert the PDF file to AZW3.
