How to return xml or pdf files via cgi interface?

I dynamically create these and want to return them just like I do it with
html.
How?

Many thanks in advance.

Just generate the right MIME headers. For XML see RFC 3023, most likely you
will want to generate

Content-Type: text/xml
or
Content-Type: application/xml

PDF is, I believe, "application/pdf"

Brian.
