Streaming pdf document over SOAP using php

hi i am connecting to a provider and getting a PDF file. Now this file needs to be sent to the users browser as it is. But the problem is there are two hops between the user and the provider. The communication between Hop 1 and Hop2 happens over SOAP.

Is it possible to send the PDF from Hop 2 to Hop 1 as a stream not as an attachment. I know i can do store and forward but i want the download to happen quickly. Also i can not remove the two servers which fall between a user and the PDF provider.
