I think you're right. Daniel Essin wrote: > I am just trying to get a full understanding of how the > methods work before I start real coding. OK, then try an example without using iText. Read a simple text file into memory and try serving it to the output stream of the response object. If it fails, you'll have a much simpler case to forward to the appropriate forum. > I understand the potential inefficiency of feeding > this through a memory stream and I doubt that I > would actually use it, You will have no choice if your end users have MSIE. > but I don't feel comfortable with new components > until I have fully exercised them and understand all the options. That's a good policy, but if you follow this policy, you know you have to take a few steps back once in a while. Try the iText-less example, and you'll be able to eliminate iText as the cause of the problem. br, Bruno ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
