The content-type does not change

Hello, i'am working on BIRT printing with HTML and PDF format.

So My report are OK and i can display it in HTML on a new Window.

First pb :  how can i open a popup in jsf? So i use Jenia popup...

Second pb : to display the PDF report generates, i have to change the
content-typt of the response. But when i am in debug, the content-type doesn't
change and stay at "html/text". So my report isn't displayed properly.
<-------------------------------------------------------->
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
HttpServletResponse httpServletResponse =
context.getExternalContext().getResponse();
httpServletResponse .setContentType("application/pdf");
<-------------------------------------------------------->

I work on a jetspeed portal.

Please help me to solve or understand the problem.

For what it's worth, I successfully use this.   But I don't know if
it's portlet-friendly.

            OutputStream responseStream =
((HttpServletResponse)facesContext.getExternalContext().getResponse()).getOutputStream();
            HttpServletResponse response =
(HttpServletResponse)facesContext.getExternalContext().getResponse();
            response.setContentType(selectedContent.getContentType());
            response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;filename=\""
+ selectedContent.getContentId() + "\"");
            response.setContentLength(selectedContent.getContentData().getData().length);
            responseStream.write(selectedContent.getContentData().getData());

            response.flushBuffer();

        facesContext.responseComplete();
