That approach won't work. To serve a PDF to the user, write a servlet that spits out the PDF, annotated with the appropriate Content-Type header. When the user presses the PDF button, either open a new window or display an iframe and, in either case, set the URL for the new window to be the address of your PDF-generating servlet. If you want to prompt the user to save the PDF to disk rather than displaying it the browser, set the Content-Disposition header appropriately. (I forget what value you need there, but you should be able to find it with a good search engine.)
