PDF documents on PDAs

Why do some downloaded PDF documents "reflow" to read on the PDA screen while others do not? Is this a document formating/tagging issue or am I doing something wrong?

I have this PDF which they created by scanning the document in. There is no "text", but just an image.

It should be clear why "reflow" can't be done with such a PDF.
