Uh, sorry, no.
HTTPS by itself will (mostly) guarantee that you are connected to the
server you think you're connecting to. There's no encryption unless you
enforce it yourself. The connection itself isn't in cleartext after the
initial handshake, so someone listening in on the network traffic won't
be able to grab and view the pdf, but unless you're requiring a login
and encrypting the file, there's nothing to stop anyone from going to
the https url and picking up a copy of the file.
