when you convert a pdf into epub through the site, it kills the formatting.

I noticed something really strange happening when I read books on the IPad
using the IBooks app with voice over. When I read through books I download
directly from the IBooks store, I have no problem reading them. However, when I
convert PDFs into the EPub format using the site epubtogo.com, and then
transfer them over to the IPad, voice over reads the text kind of strange. When
I used the two finger downward swipe to read the text continually, some of the
words are jumbled together. Voice over will read two words as if they are one
word, making it difficult to understand the speech. When I move my index finger
down the screen line by line, the text reads perfectly fine. It's only when I
use the two finger swipe or touch the screen so it reads the entire page that I
am hearing the mispronunciation of the words. This happens about every other
sentence or so. I turned the IPad completely off and back on again, and it
still continued. I looked at the PDF files on the computer, and the text is
fine. Does anyone know how to prevent this from happening?
