Getting Error When Trying To Display Pdf File In Classic Asp

I have an .asp page that has been working fine for months displaying PDF files. I just brought in a collection of 8,000 new PDF documents and now I get a “The file is damage and could not be repaired.” when trying to view these new PDF documents in Internet Explorer. The PDFs view fine in Google Chrome. This is a public-facing website so I don’t have control over what browser the user is using. Here is the code:

Set oFileStream = Server.CreateObject(“ADODB.Stream”)

oFileStream.Open

oFileStream.Type = 1 'Binary

oFileStream.LoadFromFile “c:\ldpdfs\AHCD.pdf”

Response.ContentType = “application/pdf”

Response.AddHeader “Content-Disposition”, “inline; filename=” + PDFpath

Response.BinaryWrite(oFileStream.Read)

oFileStream.Close

Set oFileStream= Nothing

Please help.

Thanks,
