Hi..
I have binary data in my database.I want to create pdf from that using open cmis.
Is it possible?Yes then please give me some guidance.

The short answer is no .
the long answer is "Alfresco don't have the ability to generate PDF,but it integrate pdfbox/tika/POI and can transform other format to pdf,But CMIS doesn't provide any api for us to invoke transform component.

You can grab data from repository(cmis) and then use itext to create pdf ,or use pdfbox/tika/POI to convert other format to pdf.
