Thanks for the quick response. So, I want to make sure that understand it right : you are proposing that the servlet should display the file, instead of allowing Tomcat to invoke Microsoft Word to disply the file content. The only issue with that is that the file is created in the RTF format and it has control characters that governs the formatting.
