Well... PDFs... There's your problem right there! Even taking a decent PDF file and extracting using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0, I notice that sometimes I get really CRAPPY html, doc and rtf files. On those I find that the only way to create a decent ebook is to extract to txt and run it through my word processor (in my case that would be Atlantis) to create a .doc version with all the spell-checking done and layout improved. Then I run an .html version of that through Calibre and generate the ePub and Mobi versions. It *is* a hassle.
