[pdftex] [slightly off-topic] php and byte serving linearized pdf

Hi,

 to mask the actual url of some PDF files, we use a php script which,
after some parsing, calls
       readfile(x.pdf)

My problem is that, if the pdf is linearized, this method bypasses the
byte-serving dialogue between the acrobat plugin and the apache server,
hence forcing the full download of the pdf file.

does anyone know a way to overcome this?
  


Thanks,
 Thierry
