The thread was valid as it was not really about pdf files but more of a 'how
to secure/deliver a file type within a ColdFusion Application'.
The list is there to help people write CF applications and in many ways to
teach those who are new to CF ways of improving their application

And you presume sending over a PDF as a .CFM is somehow acceptable?
Uh, no, I didn't suggest that.
As I've noted in earlier posts, you can send any file you want with any
filename you want using something like the following:
CFHEADER name="Content-Disposition"

You can restric permissions to that directory so that noone but the
cfserver has permission to access it. That way when they try
to access it

I disagree. People are going to stop reading the list if it is so deluged
