It's not different English, it's just a snapshot into the evolving state of my confusion.
My original post was confused because I was confused. I was reading a hex dump of the stream buffer and I did 2 things that were both wrong: - I misinterpreted the first character in the buffer as a 7 instead of what it was, a % - I assumed that the buffer was reaching acrobat via the web page which it is apparently not. Since then I have tried every permutation that I can think of and ended up thus - I can generate and send a page by supplying PdfWriter with the Response.OutputStream, I can write a valid pdf file by supplying PdfWriter with an open FileStream but if I try to supply PdfWriter with a MemoryStream and then try to feed the MemoryStream to the HttpResponse object I get 0 bytes transmitted but since the response nas the ContentType set to "application/pdf", Acrobat generates an error message upon being invoked with no bytes in the stream. I don't know why, and I don't know how to fix it. That's why I have been pestering this thread. I appreciate your taking the time to respond. Any bright ideas or correction of my limited understanding of this subject would be greatly appreciated, Dan robert engels wrote: > We must be using different english... > > On Dec 29, 2006, at 5:14 PM, Daniel Essin wrote: > >>>>>> OK let me start over again.
