Again pdfs are a real pain for my kindle 3. pls Help!

Hi guys,

Do you have any idea how could I make a pdf ebook show one page per page instead of two pages per page? I mean one side per page and not two sides per page. Two pages per page is so hard to read on a kindle 3.
I think there are some legal ways out there to fix this, or if I can do it with caliber then are there some special settings for it?
I would be so so happy to get your answer.

God bless!

Most likely your double-page PDF consists of scanned images, which you won't be able to easily convert in Calibre- the best you could hope for would be having the same images embedded into another format. If the file is not scanned images, then you're dealing with (at least) double column layout, which will be impossible to convert well in Calibre with the current PDF conversion engine.
Basically, you're out of luck.
