C_BLOB($PDF_X)
$PDF_X := MyDocumentConvertedToBLOB
set response header('Content-type'; 'application/pdf')
set response header("Content-Disposition"; "attachment;
filename="MyDocument.PDF")
delete response header("Pragma")
delete response header("Cache-Control")
set content type("application/octet-stream")
//Bug for IE on Windows, if the connection is SSL and NO cache/pragma and

set cache control("")
write blob($PDF_X; "application/octet-stream")
