Tagging will fix most of that. (Not all of it; auto-tagging isn't perfect, and manual tagging is a specialized form of geek masochism that's not worth the effort unless you're supplying ebooks specifically to the blind.) Tags tell the Reader where the actual paragraph breaks are.

Tags can't fix the orphan lines; the Reader will still end the page where the PDF did, even if there's only one line showing with the new, larger font.
