Re: Return PDF in Rest Service -- WEB400

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

And those options normally cause translation to occur.

But the whole thing is a bit strange because JSON is supposed to be written in Unicode (UCS2) and yet the file has been specified as being page 819 which is ASCII.

Can't help but wonder if it is working almost by accident.

These two lines are very questionable...

You should be opening the PDF as binary...not TEXT...
