I would definitely suggest to use 'bytea' column rather than large
objects support in PostgreSQL, as it is much simpler to manage.

bytea is an array of bytes, it is like a binary string. You must
provide directly the binary content yourself in your SQL query
(PostgreSQL does not have a clue about where your locale file is).
Loading must be performed at client level, using your favourite
application language, then passed to PostgreSQL. Every major language
now is able to deal with PostgreSQL's bytea type transparently.
Otherwise, you can still do it yourself, by properly formatting every
input byte in your SQL query using the format described here:

You still have to think in terms of binary information, sequences of
bytes. Your application might return it via the web (typical case) or
save it locally in a temporary folder for display.
