Title
Body
From a DB2 table I've got blob which I'm converting to a byte array so I can work with it. I need to take the byte array and create a PDF out of it. This is what I have: static void byteArrayToFile(byte[] bArray) { try { // Create file FileWriter fstream = new FileWriter("out.pdf"); BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(fstream); for (Byte b: bArray) { out.write(b); } out.close(); } catch (Exception e) { System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage()); } } But the PDF it creates is not right, it has a bunch of black lines running from top to bottom on it. I was actually able to create the correct PDF by writing a web application using essentially the same process. The primary difference between the web application and the code about was this line: response.setContentType("application/pdf"); So I know the byte array is a PDF and it can be done, but my code in byteArrayToFile won't create a clean PDF . Any ideas on how I can make it work?
