In this article, you will understand how to add MIME types in cPanel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) <\/strong>types instruct browsers on how to deal with specific file formats. The MIME type tells the browser what kind of file it’s dealing with and how it’ll be delivered to the user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Example:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a .ppt<\/strong> file is delivered to a browser, the application\/vnd.ms-powerpoint<\/strong> MIME type is used to inform the browser that the .ppt<\/strong> file is a Microsoft PowerPoint file<\/strong>, and the browser handles the file correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let us follow the steps:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Log into your cPanel account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. In the “Extension(s)”<\/strong> text box, insert the file extension (mypdf)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Then hit the “Add”<\/strong> button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
