Try this, I think it should work, but I don't know anything about your
getPolicyDocument method, and why there are special characters there. Also,
just as a note you misspelled webservice(not sure if that matters at all)
<cfsilent>
<cfscript>
mPdf = createObject("java", "java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream").init();
mPdf = webserivce.getPolicyDocument(ââ¬Â¦);
MyVariable = baosPDF.toString("ISO-8859-1");
</cfscript>
<cfcontent type="application/pdf; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="filename=RM.pdf">
</cfsilent><CFSCRIPT>writeOutput(MyVariable);</cfscript>
P.S. You'll need to watch for whitespace when doing things like this, it could
mess up the pdf when viewing, that is why I added the cfsilents, but you'll
need to do the same in your application.cfm

No not using iText
here is the java equivilant of what i need to do in CF
resp.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "filename=RM.pdf");
resp.setContentType("application/pdf");
byte[] mPdf = webserivce.getPolicyDocument(ââ¬Â¦); // This is what you are
getting
ServletOutputStream out = resp.getOutputStream();
out.write(mPdf);
out.close();
