To deliver it, use the right content types 
header('Content-Type: application/pdf; name="report.pdf"');  
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="report.pdf"');
(where header() is however j2ee presents headers to the browser)
and output the pdf. 

Good luck.

Obviously, a man's judgement cannot be better than the information on which he
has based it.  Give him the truth and he may still go wrong when he has
the chance to be right, but give him no news or present him only with distorted
and incomplete data, with ignorant, sloppy or biased reporting, with propaganda
and deliberate falsehoods, and you destroy his whole reasoning processes, and
make him something less than a man.
