The problem is that her books are delivered as PDF files. This is far from ideal for reading on the small e-readers that I favour.

Will Calibre convert PDF files to reflowable EPUB or KEPUB? If so, how good a job does it do? (I don't know if it's relevant, but the books in question will be pure text, with no illustrations.)
Why not contact this author and ask if you can get ePub version instead of PDF? Also suggest she stop selling PDF as that is a very bad business decision.
