I've been able to successfully convert some PDFs to EPUB. Someone recently posted that enabling Heuristic processing (in Common Options) and checking the Unwrap Lines box will help to keep the paragraphs together. I tried this, and it helped immensely to do that. Then you can use Regex to connect any other paragraphs that are broken.

PDFs with two pages, side by side, will not convert, though, as far as I know, but single-page PDFs (those that are not raw scans) should convert okay, but there will be some manual editing required.
