Yes, that look right. The file extension is .rbox and the file type is 'rbox' for 'Recipe Box Files'

I wonder since it only READS .rbox files and does not create them, if you need to context-click (CTRL-CLICK) on a .rbox file and select "Open With.." to see if your app (an reader of .rbox files) is in the list and open one to get macOS to associate viewing .rbox files with your App, since it does not actually create .rbox files?

If you have identified the document extension in the Standalone setting for macOS and set an ics file of icons (or the appropriate sizes required by Apple) than documents created by that app should display the icon.

No go. Here is the relevant part of the plist:

<key>CFBundleDocumentTypes</key>
    <array>
        <dict>
            <key>CFBundleTypeExtensions</key>
            <array>
<string>.rbox</string>
            </array>
            <key>CFBundleTypeIconFile</key>
            <string>StandaloneDoc.icns</string>
            <key>CFBundleTypeName</key>
<string>Recipe Box Files</string>
            <key>CFBundleTypeOSTypes</key>
            <array>
<string>rbox</string>
            </array>
            <key>CFBundleTypeRole</key>
            <string>Editor</string>
        </dict>
    </array>


The app does not create new files, it just opens the existing stack, originally a LC file. I tried a "save as..." but that didn't work either. Is there a way to set the signature on an existing file? I did try and the stack wouldn't open, presumably it's corrupted.
