MIME types

The application supports several document MIME types. Every MIME type has one or more file extensions which are used to match the uploaded document’s MIME type.

The detected document MIME type is also used to display an icon which represents the type of document. You can change this icon if you like.

There is a list of common document MIME types already registered in OpenKM.
