Using Netscape Navigator Helpers?

» close window

The Question is:

 
Is there anywhere I can find out how to setup netscape to use XPDF to view pdf
 files?
 


The Answer is :

 
  The OpenVMS Wizard would assume the required setup is similar
  to that of, say, setting up to use Ghostscript to display files
  using Postscript format.  In other words, set up a helper for
  the particular type, such as the application/postscript type
  used to add a helper for Postscript files.
 
  The sequence for Postscript involves selecting:
 
    Options - General - Helpers
 
  then adding the application type:
 
    application/postscript
 
  and specifying that a command such as:
 
    "view/interface=decwindows/format=ps %s"
 
  will be used for the particular file.
