CFCONTENT with reset=”true” should clear everything from the output buffer. I would assume this would include CFHEADER values, but have not tested to confirm.
Can you try it without the reset argument to see what the results are? This is what I use: <!--- Set the header values. ---> <cfheader name="content-length" value="#ArrayLen(pdfOutput)#" /> <cfheader name="content-disposition" value="attachment; filename=#attributes.fileName#.pdf" /> <!--- Stream the binary data to the user. ---> <cfcontent type="application/pdf" variable="#pdfOutput#" /> Take Care, Seth From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Angeli Wahlstedt Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2017 9:58 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [houcfug] Head-scratcher regarding dynamic PDF's Hmm, I wonder if this may be an "undocumented feature" in CF 10 and 11...?

A client just told me that a CFM page which generates a PDF document for displaying in the browser doesn't work quite right in Google Chrome. It displays the PDF content correctly, but when you select to download the document, it defaults as the name "receipt.cfm" rather than, say, "receipt.pdf" which confuses customers. (If you rename it as "receipt.pdf", it saves correct, but still...) Here's the complete code: <cfinclude template="inc_generateReceipt.cfm" /> <cfheader name=“Content-Disposition” value=“attachment;filename=receipt.pdf” /> <cfcontent type="application/pdf" reset="true" variable="#variables.PDFContent#" /> (The included template obviously generates the PDF document using CFDocument.) No matter what I try, the browser still says "receipt.cfm" for the PDF document. Firefox also has a similar issue -- it says "document.pdf" instead of "receipt.pdf". I've Googled to no avail. The production server is running CF 10, and I've replicated the same issue on CF 11. Any thoughts?
