PDFs opening in wrong application on Linux systems

188BET靠谱吗While Zotero be configured to use the system-default PDF reader, file handling on Linux can be affected by many settings.188BET靠谱吗If you find that PDFs open in, say, Gimp even though you've set the file handler to be Okular in Dolphin/Nautilus/etc., the easiest solution is to choose a specific PDF reader from the General pane of the Zotero preferences.

If you'd like to keep the setting as "System Default", you can try the following:

Open the file

~/.local/share/applications/defaults.list

in a text editor and look for the line "application/pdf=…".Change it to

application/pdf=kde4-okularApplication_pdf.desktop

If the file does not exist, create it and enter the following content:

[Default Applications] application/pdf=kde4-okularApplication_pdf.desktop

Note: On some systems, you might need to use

application/pdf=kde-okularApplication_pdf.desktop

instead.

For other PDF readers you might use one of the following:

application/pdf=evince.desktop
application/pdf=acroread.desktop
application/pdf=Foxit-Reader.desktop
