You mean a sort of streaming? Well, PDF isn't a formate well suited for this (in contrast to HTML, sans tables without colspecs), because there is an object directory in the PDF and FOP writes it at the end of the stream, as well as embedded fonts and the likes. It should be possible to get the PDF renderer pop up immediately in a non-IEx browser, but I suspect it would only show a blank page until the whole content is generated and downloaded. With IEx at least up to the IEx 6/AcrobatReader 5 combo there is the problem that the PDF plugin wont start unless there is a content-length HTTP header, which can of course only be set after the whole PDF has been generated.

Any help will be appreciated since I browsed all the web

Asking in a PDF or Adobe-related formum might get you further
insights. It is mainly a PDF problem.
