Try making your own pdf (e.g. print something to pdf). And see if that works.

ETA: I just did that, and works just fine with a test file printed to pdf and sent to my Oasis. In amazon.com/mycd under settings and "Personal Document Settings" you can edit the sendto email addresses for each of your devices. I would also enable "archive" so the document goes into the cloud for other devices to download. And under whispersync delivery set your maximum charge to 0 - this way you won't have to pay anything for delivery over 3G/4G (only wifi will work to download). Not sure if case matters, but I used "convert" (no capital C) as subject, no body, and the printed pdf file attached.

Why test such a simple PDF? It might still be your PDF that is incompatible with send to Kindle (maybe it is readonly, or not printable, or with DRM - not sure what Amazon's converter does exactly).
