FileReader.readAsBinaryString method has been deprecated.

Bit late, but I had todo something similar using the FileReader.readAsDataURL - which produces a dataUrl. I'm using AngularJS $http service to call the API to create a pdf. Hope this helps, see below:

$http.post('/api/pdf', {id: '123'}, {responseType: 'arraybuffer'})
    .success(function (response) {
        var blob = new Blob([response.data], {type: 'application/pdf'});
        var reader = new FileReader();
        reader.onloadend = function(e) {
             $window.open(reader.result);
        }
        reader.readAsDataURL(blob);
    });
