    problem uploading a pdf file

      Hi:
      After uploading without any problem xml files now I´m trying to upload a pdf file from a form with rich:fileUpload.
      I´m not sure if this is due to a seam configuration issue or a richfaces problem. I´ve already have asked in
      richfaces forum
      and I post it as well here in case it is something related to seam app configuration.


      To start with this is my web.xml config:


          <filter>
        <filter-name>Seam Filter</filter-name>
        <filter-class>org.jboss.seam.servlet.SeamFilter</filter-class>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>maxRequestSize</param-name>
            <param-value>104860000</param-value>
        </init-param>   
    </filter>

    <filter-mapping>
        <filter-name>Seam Filter</filter-name>
        <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>
       

<filter>
<filter-name>Seam Multipart Filter</filter-name>
  <filter-class>org.jboss.seam.web.MultipartFilter2</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>Seam Multipart Filter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>*.seam</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>



      and this is my components.xml:


          <web:multipart-filter create-temp-files="true"
                         max-request-size="104860000"
                         url-pattern="*.seam"/>





      In the form I have several fields, one of them is to upload a pdf or xml file:



         <h:form id="apoderado" styleClass="edit" enctype="multipart/form-data">
...
     <s:decorate id="asdf" template="layout/edit.xhtml">
 <div align="center">                                          
 <ui:define name="label">Fichero firma (pdf)</ui:define>
            <rich:fileUpload id="upload" 
             fileUploadListener="#{ApoderadoEdit.fileUploadListener}"
                  acceptedTypes="pdf,xml"
               maxFilesQuantity="1">
                <f:facet name="label">
                    <h:outputText value="{_KB}KB de {KB}KB cargados --- {mm}:{ss}" />
                </f:facet>
            </rich:fileUpload>
            <img src="Captcha.jpg"/>
</div>

</s:decorate>
...


      And this is the listener:



      public void fileUploadListener(org.richfaces.event.UploadEvent event)
{
    try{
    if(event==null){
        log.debug("null upload event");
        return;
    }
    UploadItem item = event.getUploadItem();
    String name = "unnamed_attachment";
    byte[] data = item.getData();
    generadorDirectorio();
    if (item.isFile()) {
        data =  item.getData();
        File file = item.getFile();
        name = FilenameUtils.getName(item.getFileName());
        String fileName=Util.PATH+name;
        File outputFile  = new java.io.File(fileName);
        FileReader in = new FileReader(file);
        FileWriter out = new FileWriter(outputFile);
        int c;
        while ((c = in.read()) != -1)
           out.write(c);

        in.close();
        out.close();
    }
    }catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}



      With xml files it works, but when I upload a pdf it saves a pdf with different size (bigger) and when I try to open it it asks for a Document open password. I have not configured anything relate to pdf file protection anywhere. In fact Original pdf selected to be uploaded has no protection at all.
      thanks in advance!
