Well, it's sorta true. :-)
How are you invoking Lucide? With the MPC plugin? If so, what might work
is to disable the plugin. Then you should get a prompt to save the PDF
file to disk with at .pdf extension.

Actually, what you mean is it's not doing anything to recognize the file
types. It appears that it is only looking at the filename extension and
not the file content. Why don't you submit a enhancement request to the
Lucide project.

Well, I'm sure it could be done with xul or by writing an extension.
However, it might be easier to configure MPC to run a script for .do
files. The script would rename the file and invoke Lucide.
