Whenever possible I convert books to this format via a doc or html. OpenOffice has a very fast free pdf converter which I generally use in preference to Acrobat; apart from speed its treatment of table of contents is more consistent.

If you have texts with diagrams or pictures, it is a great advantage to be able to size and place everything in a word processor interface and then create an ebook that will reliably preserve the look.
You may well be right, but I just want to get reading, not spend hours preparing the file.
