Render a pdf file returned as part of a HTTP response in Adobe AIR

Question

My requirement is to render a PDF file which is dynamically generated from a web server in an Adobe AIR application.

The user posts some data to the web server. A PDF file is generated at the web server and is returned as the response with content-type : application/pdf

I use URLLoader to post the request and handle the response. When the response is received i am unable to read it as a PDF file.

code at client end

function submitRequest()
    {

        var server = 'http://localhost:8080/bikestore/';  
        var params = 'orderData=orderData';
        var request = new air.URLRequest(server + 'submitOrder.bikes');
        request.data = params;  
        request.method = air.URLRequestMethod.POST;  
        var loader = new air.URLLoader();
        loader.dataFormat = air.URLLoaderDataFormat.BINARY;
        loader.addEventListener(air.Event.COMPLETE, submitComplete);  
        try {  
                loader.load(request);  
            } 
            catch (error) {  
            air.trace("Error connecting to login server.");  
            }  
     }


    function submitComplete(event) 
    { 
        air.trace(event.target.data);
        new air.ByteArray(event.target.data);
    }

I tried setting the URLLoaderDataFormat property to BINARY and when i try to instantiate a air.ByteArray with the returned data it gives me a Arg count mismatch error

>             at flash.net::URLLoader/onComplete()

I use iText to generate the pdf and the file looks fine when the client is a browser instead of AIR.

Is there a way to accomplish this?
