Are there any tricks? Hehe, you should ask if there is any NON-TRICKY way! ;) Serving PDFs, whether from Struts or not, is notoriously a source of major angst for many developers. The Acrobat browser plug-in is a piece of garbage, IE does things differently than FF, SSL has an effect, and so on and so forth. The list of problems is many!
Check this Wiki entry out though: http://wiki.apache.org/struts/StrutsFileDownload While it does not address all the various PDF concerns, it does mention some things that may be helpful. This strikes me as a good Wiki entry, so I've created one: http://wiki.apache.org/struts/ServingPdfDocuments Anyone who wants, please add to this as appropriate. There's certainly plenty more to be said on the subject :) -- Frank W.
