I would suggest you send it as an attachment and let the client decide what they want to do, actually IMO you should always send it as an attachment no matter what because it should be up to the client what they want to do, that's why the open with exists. Adobe can catch them even if they are attached on Windows, on Linux you won't want to view it inline anyways (at least I never do I prefer to view it in my client rather than the browser -- or to send it straight to Google Docs for viewing later.) send_data(file, type: application/pdf, disposition: attachment; filename=file.pdf) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Ruby on Rails: Talk group.

Firstly you have not posted the html for the link. However I think the above message means that it has downloaded and saved the file to the temp folder shown and then tried to open it, and failed. Possibly it is corrupted. I would suggest going and having a look at that file (in temp folder) and see if it is ok. Alternatively (or also) in your web page right click the link and select Save Link As (or similar), download it and see if you can open it. I presume you have checked that the pdf file in your public folder will open ok if you access it directly rather than through the web server. Is the file on your pc or on a remote server?

[Rails] Re: How to open PDF file in browser ?
Easiest way to ask the browser to simply display a file instead of downloading it is to do the following in your controller's action: send_file(path, :type = 'application/pdf', :disposition = 'inline') The :disposition is the important part; typically you'll be setting this to either 'inline' to force the browser to view the file inline or 'attachment' to force it to download (I use quotes because nothing is really guaranteed in the browser world).
