I would like to self-publish a book and sell it through Amazon, and also make it available in a variety of electronic formats.

I recently bought a book for $35 as an electronic download from the author's own website. It was a great book, about exactly what I was interested in. There were a few imperfections in the formatting, but I didn't mind because I was devouring the content. It was a simple pdf, with letter-sized pages.

Shall I do that?

Would that mean I would have to have two versions of my book, one with 6 x 9 inch pages, and one with letter-sized pages?

Or is there some way of making a pdf from a 6 x 9 inch Word file?

I did not bother printing out the $35 book I downloaded. I just read it on my computer.
