It depends on the book; many pdf's actually reflow very nicely on the 700, keeping the layout and all. I get lots of pdf review arcs as well as read the occasional e-NYPL pdf and while it varies, most read very well at higher zoom on the 700.
I found several pdf's that indeed jumble the lines, leave white spaces and for those I need to crop the margins and read them at half page horizontal, but it's the exception in my (somewhat limited pdf) experience.
Sometimes when I have a text file that I want to put it quickly in a nice form of the 700 and I do not want to spend the time with Calibre, I just load it in open_office, choose a favorite font/size and make it a quick pdf with the automatic button there and it works nicely too on the 700
