Hi,
why you don't serve the PDF file directly with cherrypy?
For example, some as:
import cherrypy
expose()
def documentDisplay(self, *args, **kw):
documentId = args[0]
doc = Document.get(documentId)
resourceDir = cherrypy.config.get('motion.resourcedir')
fileName = '%sdocuments/%s' % (resourceDir, doc.documentName)
return cherrypy.lib.cptools.serveFile(fileName, "application/x-
download", "attachment", doc.documentName)
you can change the content-type and content-disposal as you want.
