pdf is not a good choice for an e-ink reader, unless you produce several pdf files with various options, like 5inch, 6inch, 9inch version, small margins, large margins, small font, normal font, large font, serif, sanserif. Even then you end up with something like 3*2*3*2=36 versions and there will be people that will complain about your formatting, choice of fonts, line spacing ... .
A reflowable text file where readers can set up their preferred presentation on a reading device is much better IMHO.
If you need help formatting the file, just ask. This is Mobileread ;-)

I get PDFs from my Word files from lulu.com, and there are a couple of places online where you can convert for free. Google docs also saves as PDF. I know that Mac's Pages PDFs are different, but I thought generally PDFs were pretty much the same (hence the advantage and attraction), but obviously I'm wrong. Still, all the PDFs I download from the net seem to come up in my both Mac and Windows without any problems. That's what I meant, from my non-expert point of view: if only an ereader could just download and read those PDFs as easily as the computer will do...
