I doubt that gzip decompression is well supported except on Unix browsers, and there's no way it could work in conjunction with plug-in content (that is, displaying a PDF within a browser window). PDF files, if made properly, should be already well compressed and so gzip should be unnecessary. Don't try to use gzip to overcome a poor PDF creator that doesn't use compression on its streams.
