PDF publishing tips

Does anyone have any tips for PDF publishing. Let me clarify a little though: i am thinking of publishing for the computer alone (i.e. print at your own risk). Adobe can include JavaScript and Flash, which print cannot, so this medium seems espically interactive. In terms of advice, i am looking for:

payment options (paypal, secure email, checks, mail, etc)
download options (from site, third pardy, snailmail CD)
security issues (for my site, as well as avoiding piracy)
degree of print-computer compatability (as i mentioned, i am thinking of including JavaScript and Flash, which cannot be printed. Is this wise?)
personal horror stories or success stories

I will let you know when the release date is. I know you are all just tintilated...

RE: PDF publishing tips

contrary to popular belief, there isn't a back of indie/small press authors waiting to field questions at this site. oftentimes, one can get faster responses (and more in-depth answers) using the search function.

Here are just a few that I found interesting:
