I can tell you an implementation detail, from 6.0 version (6.1 is one that 
I've never tried) :
Those virtual (generated) files, always report 0 as their initial file size. 
That's because I can't know the real size, until the pdf is actually 
generated. I think /some/ ftp clients stick to the zero reported filesize and 
never attempt to retrieve the real file (and hence trigger its generation). 

That's a chicken-and-egg problem. Obviously, generating the file too early 
(just to get its size) and then once again (caching is not a trivial solution) 
is not an acceptable, either.

Title:
  [6.1 trunk] : [document, document_ftp] cannot open pdf file from ftp
  server

Status in OpenERP Modules (addons):
  New

Bug description:
  hi there,

  rev 4656, ubuntu 11.04

  I configured the document management to generate files for invoices
  knowledge>config>doc. mgmt.>directories
  new directory
  name:Invoices
  parent: documents
  database storage
  type: ressource
  model: invoice
  field:number
  domain:[]
  find all ressources: yes
  generated file:
  name: invoice
  sequence:1
  suffix: _print
  doc type: PDF Report
  include the name: yes
  PDF report: Invoice

  navigating the ftp server I can find all structures and files (virtual
  pdf, 0bites) I can open with firefox, however, NOT with the file
  manager (ubuntu).

  thenk you!
