Answer 1

If you use asp.net you can do like below:

In Web.config file, add

<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="100000" executionTimeout="360"/>

under <system.web>

Answer 2

Split it.

1 Try to split the content to multiple inputs. Your implementation might have problem with that...

but that's not too probable

2 Split the content to multiple requests and send them with AJAX. Collect the responses and be sure to send it in the right order (not all requests at once). Last request should confirm it's the end and load a page returning the pdf

I googled a bit on your problem and hit upon this page which says that the post size is set by the server in its configuration and can be changed by resetting it - http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5400480
