No clue what's going on there. Sounds like that shouldn't be happening. But I wouldn't use calibre to convert a scanned PDF--I think its conversion is mainly for text-layered PDFs. What are your goals with the conversion? Your Sony PRS-700 should read PDFs as is. If you want to process it to make it easier to read, try one (or more) of these instead:
PDFLRF
Rasterfarian
PDFread
SoPDF
PaperCrop

A second question, is there anyway to remove the grey color background from a scanned document? It's a waste of ink and it shows up in my reader. Do I have to do that in photoshop or something?
Acrobat has an "Optimize Scanned PDF" option which should remove most of that. Or you could try calling "Unpaper" through PDFread.
