Any help is appreciated.
The system has to consider the more general situation - what if the
type were '.txt'?
Approaching the problem sideways - did you consider just using the
embedded JPG/PDF preview images? Setting your file up as a package is
really easy (much easier than dealing with UTIs) and adding the images
is likewise very straightforward. Maybe I'm just lazy but I'll pick
the easy option (i.e. get the OS to deal with it rather than write my
own generator) every time.
