Has anyone else had trouble rendering PDF's (in Internet Explorer) when
sending the pdf directly into the response outputstream and rendering in
Internet Explorer? I realize there are a lot of factors at work here,
but I find that my configuration works fine when I switch to Tomcat
4.1.30. I'm setting the content type and content length on the
response. The code I use is below:
pdf = generatePDF();
response.resetBuffer();
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "max-age=30");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline;
filename=generated.pdf; size=" + pdf.getBytes().length);
response.setContentType("application/pdf");
response.setContentLength(pdf.getBytes().length);
response.getOutputStream().write(pdf.getBytes());
response.flushBuffer();
If I access my url with Netscape, the pdf displays correctly. If I save
it out to the filesystem (on server side), pdf displays correctly. It's
just something with the configuration of Tomcat 5 and Internet Explorer
that is not working correctly. The same code posted above works for
both Netscape and IE when run under Tomcat 4.1.30.
Has anyone had similar problems?
