I’m working on a web app that allows users to downloaded dynamically generated PDF files.

This works fine in IE8 and Firefox but fails in IE6 with Adobe Reader giving the message “there was an error opening this document. this file cannot be found”

If I save the file to disk first then it opens fine in Reader.

I’ve given the file a simple short filename, without spaces so not sure what else to try. Any suggestions are very welcome.

Further info: PDF is generated in asp.net code using the abcpdf plugin
