Christopher,

Ok,

|| This code is located on a managed bean. The method is invoked when a
|| h:commandButton is pressed. That's why I return a String.
|Ugh. Do you mean EJB? <sigh>

Yes, it's an EJB managed by the JSF config faces-config.xml . Should I use a
different servlet to get the result wanted?
Is this code right, i mean, should it show the download dialog (or even  the
PDF screen).
The navigator is firefox, but neither adobe acrobat nor plug-ins. Just a
linux reader.

|| Sorry for the English.
|Your English is just fine. I hope we're not using too many phrases that
|don't translate very well.

No problems with translations here. Just fine actually.
