Thanks! I installed Calibre and tried converting a couple of software manuals with it. The results aren't perfect, but it's usable. Some special characters were converted to question marks, and as other people have noted, the font sizing doesn't seem to work for these files, although it does for the free books that come with the Kobo. The screen prints in the manual were brought in, though, so I'm happy about that.
I noticed that when I copied a PDF file onto the Kobo, it was imported as a "document", whereas when I copied the converted ePub files to the Kobo, they were imported as "books". It would be nice to be able to specify which menu they should be included in, but I guess there no way yet to do that.
