Faced with a similar problem in CF 8 some time ago, I used some javascript (not 
cflocation) at the bottom of the document like this:
<cfdocument  filename="#tempfile#" format="PDF" pagetype="A4" margintop="0.5" 
marginbottom="0.5" marginright="0.5" marginleft="0.5" orientation="portrait" 
unit="cm" encryption="none" fontembed="Yes" overwrite="Yes" 
backgroundvisible="Yes" bookmark="False" localUrl="yes">

<your pdf html code goes here....>.
.
.
</cfdocument> 
<cfif fileexists(tempfile) and attributes.command eq 'file'>
        <cfset thisresult = ordersobj.sendpdfquotefile(session.user, 
client_order_id, tempfile)>
        <cfif thisresult.insertsuccess>
                <script language="JavaScript">
                        alert("The Job Sheet PDF File has now been sent via 
email");
                        parentWin=self.opener;
                        parentWin.location.reload(true);
                        window.close();
                </script>
        <cfelse>
                <cfoutput>
                <script language="JavaScript">
                        alert("There was a problem generating and sending the 
PDF file: #thisresult.msg#");
                        window.close();
                </script>
                </cfoutput>
        </cfif>
</cfif>

Do whatever you want in the Javascript...including 'window.location'....
There is also the possibility of making use of the 'OnRequestEnd' event, and 
perhaps you could do a cflocation in there if you are wedded to this (but I 
have found that window.location works fine for me; as it acheives the same end.)

IHTH.
