Jessie Mate open *.pdf in xpdf by default instead of winebrowser


Hi,

not sure why, but all my PDF files when I click on them in GNOME Comm. or Caja get opened in winebrowser instead of xpdf or Atril Document Viewer.


Is there any way to change that?

r-click on the pdf and in properties set the file association
as in what to use to open it

basically the same as you would on MS windows and every other operating system
