Ah, cool -- I'll give that a try and see how it goes. Thanks!

Hi there,
Love head scratchers, some times though 😉
I believe what you are seeing is browser interpreting things
rather than an issue with Coldfusion.
I tested in Internet Explorer and the save as was cfm filename.pdf.
In Firefox it was document.pdf.
In Chrome, it is cfm filename.cfm.
So I tricked Chrome. I used JavaScript to open resulting pdf in a
new tab. Once Chrome sees the right extension.pdf instead of.cfm,
the download / save as button results in receipt.pdf.
Now I believe you are creating pdf in variable so you can come up
with your variations as needed. I created physical PDF file, but
the logic should help you provide direction.
I will attach my sample code shortly.
Thanks,
Ajas Mohammed

Hmm, I wonder if this may be an "undocumented feature" in CF
10 and 11...? Also, could IIS be a factor as well?

Actually, I had tried that (along with using "SaveAsName"
in the cfdocument tag), but it still came up as
"receipt.cfm" for me. What name came up for you when you
clicked the "Download" icon in Google Chrome's PDF viewer?

This works for me, try attachments inline..

Long time, no talk. Here's a head-scratcher that I
want to bounce off you folks. 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?
Thanks,
