PDF conversion options

I'm trying to convert some Cyrillic text to a PDF sized for my Kindle 2's screen (there's no native support for display of Cyrillic currently). I finally got it to work (using UTF-8 w/BOM - looks like there's a way to import text with other encodings but I'll have to figure that out).

I'm a little unhappy with the font it chose (Arial maybe). Is there a way to specify a different one?

I have Acrobat, and this is OS X, so I have other options, but wanted to take advantage of calibre's 'Assume print formatting' option to remove line breaks that would otherwise prevent text from reflowing to PDF while retaining the correct paragraph boundaries. I don't seem to have any text editors that are smart enough to do this correctly.

Thanks.
