I'm not sure I use the right wording, but I'm trying to say that Org
(when set to open inline images) should never try to open PDF files, as
they can't be opened inline in a buffer anyway.

There are variables such as `image-library-alist' which show some image
extensions.

Every Emacs instance can be tested to see if it supports some file
extension; for example, for PNG:

M-: (image-type-available-p 'png)
