How do I turn a ColdFusion page into a PDF download?

Question

I would like to turn the HTML generated by my CFM page into a PDF, and have the user prompted with the standard \"Save As\" prompt when navigating to my page.

Answer 1

I'm not that familiar with ColdFusion, but what you need to do is set the Content-Type of the page when the user requests it to be application/octet-stream. This will prompt them for a download every time.

Hope this helps!
