You should be able to create a directory to servlet mapping in your web
server (usually in the web.xml file). 

Something like:

  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/MyServletDir</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>MyPdfGeneratingServlet</servlet-class>
  </servlet>

Then the browser can call www.myserver.com/MyServletDir/filename.pdf

Your servlet can retrieve the filename requested from the HttpServletRequest
(or just ignore it) and output it's response to the HttpServletResponse
