Hi Maintainer

Inventor is currently hardcoded to use xpdf for viewing the 
documentation for inventor clients and demos.
The attached patch uses mimeopen from the libfile-mimeinfo-perl package 
instead of xpdf and allows the user to select their favourite installed 
PDF viewer.

There may be better ways to accomplish this, but this "works for me".

Regards
Graham
