Ken,
Sending the pdf content to Qooxdoo and trying to work with it there is
similar to a post here last week about doing this with an image file.
The problem, as stated by list members on that issue, is that Qooxdoo is
not going to know how to handle pdf content that it receives, so you
might be in for quite an effort to find a way to process a pdf stream
sent through Qooxdoo. I think it can only manage text, html, json, etc.
Since pdf content needs to be rendered by the client's Acrobat Reader
instance, I'm not sure if you can open the client's Acrobat Reader and
feed it the pdf stream from within Javascript.
If you figure it out, it will likely be helpful to other list members
with similar needs, so be sure and let us know how you're doing with the
problem.
