Sidney thanks,
Will this still be available in Snow Leopard?

How about this?
CFStringRef UTI =
UTTypeCreatePreferredIdentifierForTag(kUTTagClassFilenameExtension,
CFSTR("pdf"), NULL);
NSString *name = [(NSString*)UTTypeCopyDescription(UTI) autorelease];
CFRelease(UTI);
// name is now "Portable Document Format (PDF)"

Unfortunately all I can feed it with is the file extension....
Any other idea? Isn't there a mapping plist between extension and
Kind that
exists somewhere?

Anyone knows how to get the system doc kind from a given
extension. Not
from a file, or a file path for that matter, but just from an
extension.
Like giving "pdf" and receiving "Portable Document Format (PDF).
I've tried
NSString * theTest = [[NSDocumentController
sharedDocumentController]
typeFromFileExtension:@"pdf"];
But I get nil.
Any idea?
[NSDocumentController displayNameForType:] ?
