9.3.4  Streaming and viewing a RTF document from a www server 

Postscript files can be tricky. The easier method is to create a RTF file instead of a Postscript one. In 

addition, RTF files can be loaded directly into a word processor for further editing. 

The following JSP listing does the same thing as the listing in chapter 9.3.2, except the form file is assumed 

to be in RTF format. 

<% 

  response.reset(); 

  response.setContentType("application/rtf"); 

  response.setHeader("Content Disposition","inline; filename=form.rtf"); 

/* Read the RTF file into a buffer */ 

  java.io.FileReader _reader = new 

java.io.FileReader(application.getRealPath("form.rtf")); 

  java.io.BufferedReader reader = new java.io.BufferedReader(_reader); 

  java.lang.StringBuffer buffer = new java.lang.StringBuffer(); 

  int c = 0; 

  while((c = reader.read()) !=  1) { 

   buffer.append((char)c); 

  } 

/* Use an utility function to insert the live values */ 

  xfij.util.FormUtil.format(buffer, 

   new String[] { "LABTEST", "NAME", "INUSE","DATE","PERSON","LENGTH"}, 

   new String[] { laboratoriotutkimusBean.getAbbreviation(), 

laboratoriotutkimusBean.getName() 

    , laboratoriotutkimusBean.getInuse(), laboratoriotutkimusBean.getDate() 

    , laboratoriotutkimusBean.getPerson(), 

laboratoriotutkimusBean.getLength()}); 

/* Stream the response to client browser */ 

  java.io.OutputStreamWriter writer = new 

java.io.OutputStreamWriter(response.getOutputStream()); 

  writer.write(buffer.toString()); 

  writer.flush(); 

  writer.close(); 

  reader.close(); 

  response.flushBuffer();
