Hi you can try this code snipplet for the stream :
java.io.FileInputStream FIS = new java.io.FileInputStream(filepath);
java.io.BufferedInputStream bis = new java.io.BufferedInputStream(FIS);
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
int i;
while ((i=bis.read()) != -1)
{
out.write(i);
}
FIS.close();
bis.close();
And befor the stream you should set the special http
header:Content-Disposition.
