Hi Ayub, The following link helped me to resolve the issue,Without writting even a single line of code in jsf other than just calling the method in backing bean.Let me know, if you have any issues.I beleive It should also work in websphere portal environment. http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/Sending_Files Krishna

Can I know have how the jsf code would be. Is it just calling the method in the backing bean. Does just calling the method in the backing bean from JSF ,will return whole outputStream to the user? I prefer this approach if possible, as oppose to maintaining the file in the server.
