Do you have any tilt on the mount? If so you can point the projector down and straighten up the image with the Keystone, it's best to avoid keystoning if possible but a little should not make much difference.

Re: celing mounting a infocus 4805

Getting the Projector positioned so the image lines up with the screen without any keystoning is your best option, if you are able to lower the mount to do this then do. As for the ideal measurements that would depend on your desired screen/image size, you will need to use a throw calculator to work out how far away from the screen you need to mount your Projector, you can find one Here.
