I haven't used CF7 so a blind guess is perhaps you need to add a
CFHEADER to the cfm file to identify the mime-type.
Or try it this way:
<cfobject component="gvs_techneeds" name="myCFC">
<cfoutput>#myCFC.Needs_Report("PDF")#</cfoutput>
Try asking this on BACFUG (www.bacfug.org), someone on there will
probably know (Sean Corfield and a bunch of other CF gurus are on there).
