Bug Description

currently the qpdfview.desktop

xdg-mime query default application/pdf
qpdfview.desktop

xdg-mime query default text/pdf
(nothing)

There are more mime types for PDF in use (unfortunately). And these types should be enlisted in the desktop file too probably.

application/acrobat
application/pdf
application/x-pdf
applications/vnd.pdf
text/pdf

Hello and thanks for reporting.

After some going through the W3 especially the FreeDesktop.org shared MIME database, I decided to enlarge the list of supported MIME types to "application/pdf; application/x-pdf; text/pdf; text/x-pdf; image/pdf; image/x-pdf;". The others look like their use should not be encouraged. But of course, if you really want to you can always change the launcher file by a system-wide or per-user override.

Best regards, Adam.
