Hi, 

i looked through the archives and found others having trouble dynamically
generating PDF files and delivering them to IE browser, 
but none quiet like mine.  i am using the work-around technique below (from
http://www.lowagie.com/iText/faq.html#msie) 
yet for some reason IE wants to download the file.  the save file dialogue
box appears when the report is generated.  
the file is not available when i choose download, but that's not how i had
hoped it would work.  
i am using Solaris and websphere(4.0).  When i set the cache (as follows) i
get the report back but the reports start to overlap text after about 
9 or 10 pages.  Once the overlapping has occurred even the smaller files
will overlap from the beginning.  If i stick to the around 8 page documents
the overlapping never occurs.   Thanks in advance, chad
res.setHeader( "CacheControl", "no-cache");
res.addHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
res.setContentType("application/pdf");
ByteArrayOutputStream ba = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
generate_pdf(ba);
res.setContentLength(ba.size());
ServletOutputStream out = res.getOutputStream();
ba.writeTo(out);
out.flush();
