Best option would be to rent a dedicated server and put all your side projects there until one of them catches on and you need to scale.

You can get a small dedicated server for $30-40 per month. If you rent it yearly you will often get a discount.

Store your PDFs on the dedicated server. If it's not sufficient, use S3. But a dedicated server should be able to handle couple thousand PDFs if your traffic is low.
