Not too much risk, I think, because it is all automated and if it is very busy, there will be tons of stuff if someone wanted to go through it. Probably less chance than if we were in China at the moment.
Consider how safe Gmail and other online mail services are.
I use an online booklet maker ocassionally but never bother about someone reading my booklets.

You can always tell a Yorkshireman,
But you cannot tell him much.

I use Open Office Writer to create PDF files. Just compose your document and then export as PDF.
The Open Office suite is a free download.

Another possibility, you can select and copy the whole pdf file.
Paste it into Microsoft Word or Open Office Writer.
Edit the file.
And then convert it to PDF for free at this website:

Foxit pdf editor?
Commercial, but cheap... any you may find it "around" ;-)
If not, try one of the 1000 free utilities you can easily find in google to convert PDF into MS Word, edit the changes and save in PDF again using a free PDF software distiller like dopdf (www.dopdf.com)

eXPert PDF Creator 6 - cheaper than Foxit (I think!)
Been looking into Foxit Reader and to buy for full functionality is $120 which is about £60 - eXPert PDF 6.0 is £39.99 (but if you have an old cover version off a CD you might get an offer to buy it for a tenner (as I did).
Try Sumatra pdf - shrink the pages so you can see the ones you want to copy, hold the left Control button down, hold left mouse down and drag around the pages you want, then press C, open word and paste - the only thing none of these can cope with are Maths symbols - usually replaced with question marks! (and that goes for the 'Industry Standard' Adobe reader too!). Or better still paste into OpenOffice.org Writer then you can save back out to .pdf!
If you have an OCR program like ABBYY Fine reader or OmniPage you can edit that way.
