Direct conversion of PDF to Mobi or KF8 is never going to work well. Extensive manual editing is going to be required. You will not find anyone to do that for you free of charge - it's just grunt work; dozens and dozens of hours of it for a typical book.
That's why I suggesting using a decent OCR program. It won't be perfect, but it will give you results that are enormously better than a direct conversion of the PDF.

Hmm...
Well it is about 6000 pages. Could that explain the file size?
When i get home i will try the ocr software and see how it works.
I am however willing to offer some payment to whoever agrees to do the conversion for me if the OCR method doesnt work well.
Lets see.
Thanks Harry
