You could use cStringIO for writing the file in memory but in reality it 
really
does not matter from the point of speed. Using a file offers you the 
possibility
to emit it through a FileStreamIterator. This avoids that you need to load 
the file
as a whole into the memory.

Um? What else is that method returning?
I'd suggest you call getrarTCE directly by URL, check you're setting 
the correct content-type and maybe set a content disposition too...

Solved. :) I create a External Method that returns the code.
I'm calling the external method using:
  
And I put the following lines at the end of the code:
fname stands for the filename
def generatePDF(page):
os.rename(_fname, "tces/"+_fname)
file = open("tces/"+_fname).read()
os.remove("tces/"+_fname)
page.setHeader('content-type', 'x-application/pdf')
page.setHeader('content-length', str(len(file)))
page.write(file)
This was the best solution that I could thought, once reportlab didn't create PDF 
"on the fly", without writing in the filesystem.
