Answer 1

You can get base64 string of your pdf stream and pass it to response.

And your method change

$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: url,
    data: {"data": JSON.stringify(myData)},
    success: function(data, textStatus, jqXHR) {
        var pdfWin= window.open("data:application/pdf;base64, " + data, '', 'height=650,width=840');
        // some actions with this win, example print...
    },
    error: function(jqXHR) {
        showError("...");
    }
});
