My client needs to make PDF files that approach 50MB available for download from his website. I wouldn't blink at just offering a Save/Open option for files under 10MB. These large files concern me, though. Can I stream these reliably? If so, can you point me to any code? Thanks
What's the best way to stream PDF files to a browser using Classic ASP?
"stream" is probably not the right word to use since that normally refers to non-downloadable streamed media such as live video/music.
There's no problem having 50MB files available for download via http, provided that you don't set a short timeout on your web server, and that you have enough bandwidth to cope with the increased amount of data that's being made available.
