Public bug reported:

It looks like it's possibly related to Bug #230627, but it's slightly
different and that bug is quite old now.

Preferences --> Applications only has one PDF 'Content type' which is
'PDF document', and I have evince ('Document Viewer') set as the
application.

I attach a screen shot of these Application preferences - file
'2012_02_28 1 PDF preference.png'.

However, if for example I try to open a PDF document, it tries to use
gedit, as shown in the attached screen shot - file '2012_02_28 2
Download PDF dialog box.png'.

I notice that both Preferences 'Content type' and download dialog box
'which is a:' use the words 'PDF document'. Neither of them use the
words 'PDF file'.
