Converting PDF Files to ePub

Hello all,

I recently bought an e-book reader and want to use it to read all those
wonderful books available out there for free (Ubuntu Pocket
Guide<http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html>,
for instance).

The reader is an OEM manufactured by Qisda. This is a link to the technical
details<http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/261636182/6inch_Ebook_Reader_Device_AUO_SiPix.html>
.

I'd like to convert my existing books to be read on the device. it supports
ePub, so I thought that would be the best format to use...

I tried to use Calibre to convert the files, but they come out all jumbled:
random characters, paragraphs breaking it the middle...

I was wondering if there's a way to add my device to the output profiles. I
tried the Sony Reader profile (my device is similar to the Sony PRS-600) but
got the same result.

Any ideas / pointers?

Thanks!

Amichai.
