I needed to do a lot of studying for my Cisco CCNA, those were pretty complex PDF documents. Conversion sucked.

I found a couple of tools which convert the PDF to (split) images which look okay and made it readable.

- pdflrf - this tool was great but had some licensing issues so was removed from MR. I understand it is still findable on the, shall we say less respectable, p2p networks.

- pdfread (haven't tried this myself)

- sopdf (haven't tried this)

There are probably more tools out there. Play around a little. But ultimately PDFs which were not specifically formatted for a given screen size will disappoint, IMHO (PDFs specially formatted for the 6" screen look freaking spectacular).
