The ContentType property specifies the HTTP content type for the response. If no ContentType is specified, the default is text/HTML. I am trying to open a document read from database. The document can be of any type such as JPG, PDF, EXCEL, WORD, TEXT, etc. I am wondering what value I should assign.

Here is the code i have on a page. <% Response.AddHeader 'Content-Disposition', 'attachment; filename=PressRelease.pdf' Response.ContentType = 'application/pdf' Response.Write('I am here')% when i try to open it, it opens Acrobat Reader but the Acrobat Reader gives me an error in the form of a message box with this message 'Acrobat could not open 'PressRelease1.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been corrupted (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).' Any ideas?:) SD.

Thanks for the feedback folks, What i really wanted to do was. Create a PDF file on the fly.

Convert an ASP page into a PDF. You can convert aSP files into word, excel etc, by changing the response.contenttype. I was able to convert it into PDF similarly in the past. But now, i am having trouble. Ftb, Do you want to create a.pdf file on the fly? AgentSmith007, your method sounds complicated, is there a simpler solution?

Hongjun, I am trying to create a PDF on the fly and not stream an existing PDF. Thank you.:) SD.

I am trying to display a PDF file (which I am being passed from a web service as a binary stream) in a browser, but I am being prompted to save the file instead. I don't want the user to be prompted; I just want the PDF to be displayed. Here is the code: Dim binaryData As Byte binarydata = GetDataHere Response.ContentType = 'application/pdf' Response.BinaryWrite(binar yData) Response.End I also tried adding Response.Flush and Response.Close just for good measure, but it didn't help. I'm using ASP.NET.
