Is there a way for the nd server side, to read that file, and
deliver the
binary data back to the client?
James,
This part seems to be possible :
Have an Applet on the client side.
The applet invokes a method on a CSpPage on the Server side, which reads the
PDF and write into a ByteArrayStream and wraps it into a Hashtable and
returns.
The applet opens the Hashtable and gets the ByteArrayStream.
But what next? The applet (signed) writes it into the local disk?...
