Topaz is .azw1, if it is an .azw then it is a MOBI.

From your description, Amazon may have converted the PDF to half page images and assembled them into a MOBI. One way to check is to see if changing the font size has any effect. If not, then it is a file of images.

Amazon does seem to convert PDFs to TOPAZ when they are producing ebooks for publishers, because of the reasons that pilotbob mentions. However, I have not seen a rotated TOPAZ ebook. I agree that TOPAZ is largely a failure as an ebook format.
