Hello, I just met the problem today, on a similar configuration, and for me, the fix that you applied worked. I actually just modified a bit the sample configuration for mod_deflate: # Don't compress images SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \ \.(?:gif|jpe?g|png|pdf)$ no-gzip dont-vary restarted Apache, and that was it. In my case, the PDF file was a real, static one, not generated by a servlet. Maybe you can have a look at the actual packets exchanged to see what is the difference in header with and without mod_deflate?
