We already know cacapee--although capable of writing one fine program--is a strange and mysterious being... and not exactly forthright. I'm not sure I believe him.

This program is amazing,
now I can read reference books in my Sony 505.
I don't understand why the programmer does not want to make it open,
it should be developed by other people here to be used for all reader...
But it is his software and he decides no one can argue about it.

PDFLRF rasterizes the PDF. When it's done, there are no fonts in the document, and therefore, no fonts to resize.

There really is no good way to change the font size in a PDF.

You really only have two other options:

1) On most portables, the page of each PDF will be scaled to fit as well as possible on the screen. So if the page is smaller, the characters will appear bigger. Keeping things in PDF format, your best bet would be to crop all unnecessary whitespace, and perhaps split each page up. If PDFLRF is not doing the trick, SoPDF or BRISS are two good tools to look at here.

2) You could try converting it the PDF into some reflowable format. How well this works and how much you will lose depends a lot on the type of PDF in question, and its complexity and cleanness. Free tools to do this include calibre and pdfreflow. (There are also more expensive tools such as Adobe Acrobat or ABBYY finereader.) Nothing works perfectly for this, however.

The advice frabjous gave you is quite excellent, and probably would be the first thing I try.

If those solution do not work you can try one tool that was not mentioned "PaperCrop". This tool acts very much like PDFLRF/PDFRead, where it turns the PDF pages into images then optimizes the images to fit on a 6" screen. However PaperCrop has a few features that make it stand out above PDFRead/PDFLRF.
You can select page per page, or bulk page the crop zones. This is a front end GUI, second the tool has a resize feature that word wraps the text if the target screen is smaller than the PDF width. The only downside is you have to set the resolution form the config file.

What I have found is I try to get the PDF to be readable with soPDF/BRISS and if I can't then I use PaperCrop. PaperCrop has ALWAYS worked for me, but it takes more time to format the final product.

One of the funniest things about the one or two word gratitude posts in this thread is that half of them are using Kindles, which don't even support the LRF format.

I don't know if this will help anyone, but I tend to convert PDFs to Word and then reformat to A7 page size with almost no border and reprint as an A7 size PDF with Arial 8pt text, which fits my PRS-600.

I've been looking for it for well over a year now with no success; if you find it, do let us know.

The Windows version works with WINE, however.

Seriously, why is this program not made open and continued?
It is BY FAR the best tool I have found to convert PDFs to LRF. In it's current version, 0.99, it works VERY well. However, there are a few niggles. But the potential is enormous.

Please continue the project!
