I do not know the reason for your problem.

But, I can assert that you do not need to specify a content-type
in the redirect. The "Content-Type" in the redirect specifies
the content type of the body of the redirect response
and not that of the redirected to page.

This body is usually something like: "When your browser does not
support redirects, please click here to come to the page."
I is unlikely that you send a PDF page as body of a redirect.

Apparently, your browser sent this value as "User-Agent" in its request.
