I'd try to use HttpResponse as a file object. As in
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/outputting-pdf/#write-your-view.


I'm thinking of something like this in the view:

response = HttpResponse(mimetype="<whatever>")
input = read contents of your hidden file
response.write(input)
return response
