Yes, this is enough. But becouse a bug in InternetExplorer you have to set
the contentLength.

You can see some samples under: http://www.lowagie.com/iText/

There is also an explain from some bugs with PlugIn in
http://www.lowagie.com/iText/faq.html

There is really nothing special about serving a PDF document other than
setting the correct MIME type.  If you are using Tomcat to serve static PDF
files, just make sure the file extension is .PDF and the browser should
recognize it properly.  If you are dynamically generating the PDF and
sending it back as a byte stream, just set the Content Type header to
"application/pdf" and send the data back through the output stream.  You
will have to do this with a servlet as a JSP page tries to treat everything
as text.

Does Tomcat support byte serving of PDFs?
