Posted: Fri Aug 03, 2012 5:59 pm Post subject: [Solved] File association question |
|
|
How can I change a file's associated application? For example, when I try to open a PDF, Gimp opens and wants to import it. I do have Adobe Reader installed and can open the file with it, but right-clicking the file does not show any option for "Open with...".
Ideas
Thanks,
~Mark _________________ Thanks,

Kickoff > System Settings > File Associations
Type "pdf" in the box "Find file type or filename pattern".
The rest should be self-explanatory. _________________ Clevo W230SS: amd64, VIDEO_CARDS="intel modesetting nvidia".
