In pdf format? Most of the fiction is in epub format, and these don't need tables anyway. But a lot of reference books are only available in scanned pdf or djvu. And most roleplaying supplements are only available in prepared pdf.

Scanned pdfs usually have text issues. Prepared pdfs can have text issues with ligatures, and can have other issues due to layers, incompatible images, security, etc. The Kindle app for Mac can read these pdfs without the same problems as the Kindle Dx, so I can't use it to test files before sending to the Kindle Dx.
