Re: Perl output is not inducing file download as expected

-type => 'application/octet-stream',
[download]

Shouldn't that be:

-type => 'application/pdf',
[download]

The "octet-stream" categorization came from the suggestion of multiple websites as being a designation sure to prompt the download dialogue in the browser. In my case, obviously, it didn't--but then, neither did "pdf" or "x-download" or anything else I had tried. See my full solution that I finally found in my own response (to be posted shortly).
