I am trying to generate pdf and display inside any Div, I am getting binary data from server but when I try to convert that stream it says failed to load pdf. I googled it and saw response of many people saying use responseType: 'arraybuffer' but I am getting object from server and extracting binary from it so I can't use it, though I tried with this approach as well but it didn't work. Here is my controller code:

 correspondenceService.getCorrespondenceDocument(id).$promise.then(function (data) {
                var file = new Blob([(data[0].documentBytes)], { type: 'application/pdf' });
                var fileURL = window.URL.createObjectURL(file);
                vm.content = $sce.trustAsResourceUrl(fileURL);
                window.open(fileURL);

            }, function (reason) { });
        }

This is Service:

 getCorrespondenceDocument: function (correspondenceId) {
                return $resource(correspondenceUrl + "getCorrespondenceDocuments").query({ correspondenceId: correspondenceId });
            }

and this is my webApi:

  [Route("getCorrespondenceDocuments")]
        [HttpGet]
        public async Task<IEnumerable<Document>> GetCorrespondenceDocumentsAsync(int correspondenceId)
        {
            var documents = await _correspondenceFacade.GetCorrespondenceDocumentDetailsAsync(correspondenceId);
            return Mapper.Map<IEnumerable<Document>>(documents);
        }

Trying to display like this on View:

Please let me know where I am doing mistake. Many thanks in advance.

Regards, Vivek
