    I have used PDF Press to generate PDFs from data but somehow generated output is rendered ad text/html not PDF which looks like

    %PDF-1.3 1 0 obj << /Type /Catalog /Outlines 2 0 R /Pages 3 0 R >>
    endobj 2 0 obj << /Type /Outlines /Count 0 >> endobj 3 0 obj << /Type
    /Pages /Kids [6 0 R ] /Count 1 /Resources << /ProcSet 4 0 R /Font <<
    /F1 8 0 R >> >> /MediaBox [0.000 0.000 612.000 792.000] >> endobj 4 0
    obj [/PDF /Text ] endobj 5 0 obj << /Creator (DOMPDF) /CreationDate
    (D:20140206173022-05’00’) /ModDate (D:20140206173022-05’00’) >> endobj
    6 0 obj << /Type /Page /Parent 3 0 R /Contents 7 0 R >> endobj 7 0 obj
    << /Length 74 >> stream 0.000 0.000 0.000 rg BT 34.016 746.579 Td /F1

    %%EOF

    I have try to use that plugin http://devot-ee.com/add-ons/http-header but I’m getting same result.

    With another test I have run from same hosting simple PHP code to generate PDF using FPDF and I’m able to render PDF.

    I don’t think this is a Virtuamin or Apache issue - neither would be forcing the HTTP header. More likely the header is being set twice in the script, perhaps once to the default of text/html and then again by add-on to application/pdf and EE force to use text/html

    Any clue what can be wrong?

    Thanks
