And it does not work for me with a later version of org mode! Thanks for the explanation on how the browser to use is identified; I know this already (although I must admit it was not the most straightforward thing to figure out initially...). I have my settings specified to use x-www-browser by default. My point above was simply that the actual results are not symmetrical: as C-c C-e d uses docview to show the PDF despite my mailcap etc pointing to the use of apvlv for viewing PDF documents. I don't believe I have set anything anywhere to tell org to use docview mode. In any case, it's easy enough for me to open the PDF in Emacs w3m (C-c C-e p followed by direct invocation of w3m). [...] > As for opening it in emacs w3m, I don't know how to do that. It's one of the options for the browse-url options.
