If you have the binary data in the database you can use an HttpHandler to spit out the data using something along the lines of:

C#

public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
{
    int id;
    if(Int32.TryParse(context.Request.QueryString["id"], out id))
    {
        var data = GetPDFFromDB(id);
        context.Response.Buffer = true;
        context.Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
        context.Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", data.Length.ToString());
        context.Response.WriteBinary(data);
    }
    else
    {
        context.Response.WriteLine("Invalid id");
    }
}

See the documentation for more details: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.httpresponse(v=vs.100).aspx[^]

Hope this helped :-)

Solution 2

Looks like you already are opening a new window on click of a text field (PDF name link). Just open the PDF in Page_Load of new window. Looks like you already have all the needed details for picking up right PDF in querystring.
