You would use the same font size as you use for print, or perhaps a little smaller (I think people tend to hold ereaders a little closer than a book). Just lay it out on 6" (diagonal) pages.
That's a way if the user produces the PDF by his own. Then he can chose the fontsize. The problem of foreign PDF is, that the fontsize is fixed. And the size of paper too.
