I find that in most cases Calibre does just fine at converting epubs to mobi.
A couple books have some formatting quirks, but most are fine.

You might download Calibre and convert a couple and then view the results.

And of course you can always send the kindle back if it doesn't work out.

On PDFs with a DX the multi-column papers might be viewable as-is unless you
have poor eyesight and want bigger fonts.

Or you can try this:

or

Both claim to convert multi column PDFs to single
