PDFs? I tend to avoid them like the plague. A non-reflowable page oriented format that needs to be printed or displayed on a display close to the paper size is nothing but a PITA on most eInk readers. As for converting pdf to pdf? If I really need to do that, I would use open the file in Acrobat Pro which comes as part of our CC subscription. Since I tend to have only technical publications in PDF format, I read them on my laptop or iPad Pro using Adobe software which doesn't seem to have issues with pdf versioning. They are only on my Forma as suspenders and belt for those occasions when, as an example, I need to access a Palo Alto CLI reference manual and don't have access to my laptop or iPad Pro.
