If you can open the PDF file with your browser (that is the PDF file has
some URL like http://localhost/mydir/aaa.pdf ), you can use <%
response.sendRedirect("http://localhost/mydir/aaa.pdf";); %>
If the PDF file is in the *same web application* with the JSP page, you can
use <jsp:forward> to return the content of the PDF file (the JSP page will
read and return the content of the PDF file to the web browser)
Otherwise, you must can't use JSP pages to to that! But you can use
servlets to do that

You can use the following code.
<%
getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("abc.pdf").forwa
rd(request,response);
%>
Hope it will help you.
