Yesterday, you wrote:

pdfOutputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
Document doc = new Document();
PdfWriter    writer = writer.getInstance(doc, pdfOutputStream);
doc.open();
doc.add(new Phrase("Thgis ia kdjfalkdjflkajlkdj jadflkjaslkdjfk adlkfjas 
ldjflkadflkjaslkdfj"));
doc.close();
OutputStream outStream = Object.getBinaryOutputStream();
pdfOutputStream.writeTo(outStream);
outStream.close();

So you created a ByteArrayOutputStream and that way you obtained
an object pdfOutputStream that can be written to another OutputStream
or retrieved as byte[]. Why are you saying 'you can't find any method to
get the ByteArrayOutputStream'? You are contradicting yourself.
What you say just doesn't make sense. You are wasting valuable time!

Anyway, I see in your last code sample that you can get an OutputStream
from your BLOB object class:
OutputStream outStream = dbObject.getBinaryOutputStream();
You can write the PDF to this outStream object directly without
using a ByteArrayOutputStream as intermediary 'storage'.
You could use something like this:

Document doc = new Document();
PdfWriter    writer = writer.getInstance(doc, 
dbObject.getBinaryOutputStream());
doc.open();
doc.add(new Phrase("Thgis ia kdjfalkdjflkajlkdj jadflkjaslkdjfk adlkfjas 
ldjflkadflkjaslkdfj"));
doc.close();
