PDF to AZW3

Hi everyone,

No way to correctly convert a PDF in an AZW format (I have a kindle 2nd gen.).
Calibre says it's done but the result is unreadable.

Do you have some tips? Passing by an intermediate format?

Many thanks for your help.

Y

PDF is probably the worst input format for conversion. The worst conversions that I've seen was with PDF files that use images to display the pages with an underlying OCRed text layer allowing for search.
