If you want to specify your own viewer UI, you can use the following:

JFileChooser.setFileView(javax.swing.filechooser.FileView)

JFileChooser looks to see if there is a FileView defined by a user.  I so, it
will get the file type information from there.

There's a nice example of this provided with JDK1.2 in the following path:

<installed JDK root>/demo/jfc/FileChooserDemo/ExampleFileView.java

I hope that this helps.
