I wish I could help you, Vip, but I don't have any experience with Java and PDFs. There are people on the list, however, who are doing this stuff and can probably help you, so I'm cc'ing the group. Otherwise, I know a lot of people are doing this (and I probably will be too, soon), so try a Google search on the keywords in your message.

I have seen your replies in the struts mailing lists regarding some problems which I have right now. I hope you have some idea on these. There are two different issues, I want to clarify before I implement differently. 1. We just started using iText to generate reports. Right we open PDF's in the browser window (My acrobat reader is set up like that). Is there a way to open PDF in a separate acrobat window, by not changing the acrobat reader 'Preferences/General/Options'?. Means Can we control this from servlet? We are using Struts. I don't know the settings on the client machine, and I want to ignore whatever set on the client machine. 2. I have set up the my action servlet "nocache" property to "true" in the web.xml. So that the browser avoids caching the pages. This can be set up from the browser on individual machines also. But adding this property to the action servlet control the browser settings. The problem now is, whenever I open a PDF file, close the PDF file, and select other button to open different page fails and opening the same PDF again. The button should go to different action mapping. But browser is caching the PDF file. How to avoid caching of PDF files and not only HTML files. Thanks in advance. -- Vip -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
