Hmm.. no change, I'm afraid.

MSIE/Firefox still does not attempt to display the PDF (xxx.pdf); and 
if I go to
the absolut URL of the foo.pdf-output file, the Acrobat Reader says "unknown
object name" (I'm using the Swedish-language version of the reader, so I don't
know what the exact output is in English).
