http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28170 PDF content through JSP fails in Tomocat 4.1.30, Windows IE and Acrobat Reader 6.0.1 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-04-02 23:27 ------- Thanks, I did the telnet trick to see everything: GET /badpdf.jsp HTTP/1.0 Returns: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=FACB1957A5D101E32866F2466D16D929; Path=/ Content-disposition: inline; filename=sample.pdf Content-Type: application/pdf;charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Length: 32111 Date: Fri, 02 Apr 2004 23:08:46 GMT Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1 Connection: close While GET /sample.pdf HTTP/1.0 Returns: HTTP/1.1 200 OK ETag: W/"32111-1080931122000" Last-Modified: Fri, 02 Apr 2004 18:38:42 GMT Content-Type: application/pdf Content-Length: 32111 Date: Fri, 02 Apr 2004 23:11:06 GMT Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1 Connection: close So it looks like servlet time. About PDFs as Text - As someone who beta tested Acrobat 1.0 and has followed it ever since although not as closely since 4.0. Done all kinds of things like Java applets launched from a 3.0 plugin, etc. - Since PDF-1.2 (or so) and linearized/zipped content streams PDFs are no longer 7- bit ASCII. So, I can see where a character set choice might confuse any of the applications upstream of the web server! Also, Jess's point about worrying about linefeeds is something I'm always checking - particularly the one(s) which easily can get tacked on after the last %> - PDFs (unless linearized) need the end of the file to find everything - all the objects are found from the end. Here we are the little guys and upstream we have Sun, MSFT and Adobe doing what they will.
