I had a situation where I had to create a PDF containing a dynamic cover sheet
and supporting documents, which are in pdf format. I used CFDocument to create
the cover sheet, stored it in a variable, then used cfpdf with cfpdfparam to
specify that cover sheet variable, then looped over the files. CFDump says
that worked correctly.
I then tried using cfcontent to display the resulting file. I would have
expected that to work. Intead it throws this:
[b]Attribute validation error for tag cfcontent.[/b]
[i]coldfusion.pdf.PDFDocWrapper is not a supported variable type.[/i] The
variable is expected to contain binary data.
The error occurred in
E:\WebRoot\www.missionincrease.com\wwwroot\active\Admin\MinistryGrants\fundingRe
quest.cfm: line 99

filename=#URLEncodedFormat("FundingRequest.pdf")#'>
99 : <cfcontent reset="yes" variable="#pdfOut#" type="application/pdf">
100 : </cfif>
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
