What am I doing wrong?
Run convert on the PDF to Mobi in Calibre and transfer the Mobi (this will not work on image based PDFs). The result is likely to suck unless you work on the conversion options (margins to handle line breaks and regexps to remove headers, footers and page numbers). If it is a multicolumn PDF or a PDF with boxes and drawings, you should not have high hopes of converting it to a readable Mobi.
