These are not my files. just know (intellectual property) how to read
and write them. There are approx 18 formats that will ultimately be
supported by by generator.

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.
