I am creating a PDF document using ColdFusion cfdocument tag. Works fine, however instead of showing the document name in browser Title - it shows the .cfc file that I call to create the PDF.
Here is how I'm calling it.
<cfdocument format="pdf" marginbottom=".5" margintop=".25" marginright=".5" marginleft=".5" saveAsName="#filename#.pdf"> <cfdocumentitem type="footer"> <p>Page #cfdocument.currentpagenumber# of #cfdocument.totalpagecount#</p> </cfdocumentitem> <html> <head><title>#filename#.pdf</title></head> <body><img src="file:///#application.tempFolder#\#thisFilename#" /></body> </html>
</cfdocument>What the heck am I missing? Why does it still show the filename.cfc file that I'm calling in the browser title instead of the filename I give to the PDF???

Figured it out. Had to create the document using CFDOCUMENT, then add a "Title" attribute to it using the CFPDF tag. Then output it to the browser.
<!--- Create the PDF --->
<cfdocument format="pdf" marginbottom=".5" margintop=".25" marginright=".5" marginleft=".5" filename="#application.tempFolder#\#thisSaveAsFilename#" overwrite="yes"> <cfdocumentitem type="footer"> <p>Page #cfdocument.currentpagenumber# of #cfdocument.totalpagecount#</p> </cfdocumentitem> <html> <head><title>#thisSaveAsFilename#</title></head> <body><img src="file:///#application.tempFolder#\#thisFilename#" /></body> </html>
</cfdocument>
<!--- Use CFPDF to add attributes to it --->
<cfset thisInfo = StructNew()>
<cfset thisInfo.Title = "pdf title goes here...">
<cfpdf action="setinfo" info="#thisInfo#" source="#application.tempFolder#\#thisSaveAsFilename#" />
<!--- Send it to the browser --->
<cfcontent file="#application.tempFolder#\#thisSaveAsFilename#" type="application/pdf" />A
