We are looking to request/receive a PDF document via a webservice call, how do we go about presenting the received document? Ideally we would like to present it inline in a UIT, but only see the option of including images (gif and jpeg), does it have to be linked to a stored document somehow?

I am also unsure how to convert the data from the webservice to a PDF to be displayed or linked to, are is there an existing example application or other resource to work from as a baseline?

Thanks!...

As Eduardo pointed out above, you can build your web service to pass back base64 data (string) to Appian. Then use the smart service "Appian Document from Base64 String" which is available under Document Generation category after you install the Base64 plug-in.
