I've had mixed results with .pdf conversion on the Kindle--I've had documents come out quite well, others with some problems. The general process for converting documents not purchased on the Kindle store (those are just sent directly to the device) is that you would save the document on your computer and then email it to a Kindle mailing address you set up for yourself. After a few minutes, the converted document is sent to the Kindle.

On .pdfs, usually the graphics are rendered. I've also had them occasionally come out as just black space. If the original page formatting is simple, I've had fine results. If there are a lot of text boxes, columns, and fancy layouts, I've had things get mixed up, although the text is always readable and I've been able to catch onto where things went. I've had occasional typos and missing letters creep in, not sure why. Later tonight I could send you a screen shot of an example, if you want.

Yes, the font is resizeable. Even better, the documents are word-searchable. I'm assuming that the particular .pdfs that I converted were created using OCR, and that otherwise they would just be image files, but I haven't tested that theory.

There are other Kindle-compatible formats, including text files, that work fine. These include .txt, Word, html, .prc, and .mobi. I've used Word, html, text, and .mobi with little or no problem.

Hope this helps.
