You may enjoy the reflow feature on Koreader. It fits a pdfs content into a screenwidth single column layout. That text is also zoomable.

Does it work on scanned (non-“digital”) PDFs as well? That has been my biggest pain point so far. Haven’t tried Koreader yet.

I have found that it works surprisingly well on PDFs ripped from the Internet Archive. These PDFs tend to be OCR'd scanned copies of the book. I doubt that it would work if the text is not selectable at all.
