Your strategy doesn't appear to be successful.

Well, PDFs can be published so that they will be downloaded gradually. This is an option in Acrobat. It also requires a web server that knows how to byte serve requests. http://www.planetpdf.com/enterprise/article.asp?ContentID=6193 http://www.searchpdf.com/id419.htm However, if you're generating your PDFs using CFDOCUMENT, I don't think this is an option. In addition, if you're serving them through CF via CFCONTENT, I don't think that will work either. You would need to generate your PDF directly with iText (I think it supports this, but am not sure), then give the user a link or a redirect to the generated PDF.
