[users@httpd] serving pdf
How do I serve pdf output from python scripts directly to the user's
browser?
I know I can write the output to a pdf file and then serve an
intermediate page containing a link or button for the user to click but
I want to bypass that step.
The pdf output contains info the user wants to remain private so it
would be brilliant to avoid writing it as a file then linking to it. I
suppose I could delete the file afterwards if I'm forced to go that way.
Also, we don't want the user to be able to alter the content hence html
output - although easy - is not the way to go.
Thanks for hints or links to more info. Professor Google hasn't been so
helpful so far.
Mike
