pulling a pdf out of a blob and displaying it in a browser window

I need to pull a PDF file out of a blob that I have uploaded it into. We
need it available on the web.
I can't think of how to utter a statement that will allow acrobat reader to
know that it needs to fire and open what is in the blob.
Ack.In your client code, create a memory stream, or byte arrray, and just write
the contents of that stream or byte array out to the web client using
Response.write...
To tell client browser to load Acrobat reader, just set the
Response.ContentType...
Don't know what you web server programming language is.. but in C#, it
would be:
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";

of image/gif.

However, just like images, you may consider storing them in the filesystem.
