1. What version of IE are you using, and is a Microsoft ISA server between you
and the J2EE server?
2. Instead of returning a PDF in one step, do it in two stages...never mind. I
was going to tell you what we've done, but that was to return TIFF to the
browser. PDF will always fire up the Acrobat Reader, you can't embed it in a
page. FWIW, what we do for TIFFs is to have the first request stage the file (a
call to Content Manager to locate and prepare it) and then forward to the JSP
that displays the TIFF by having an <IMG> tag's src point to another Action
which will stream the TIFF back (hopefully at this point Content Manager has
found and staged the file, so the second request will send back data without delay).
