Once you've customized dired you can simple press "v" to view a file in 
an external viewer. The other way is to press "!" and spawn a new 
process. For this you enter the external viewer's name and a RET. Dired 
will pass the file's name to the viewer process.

'(dired-view-command-alist (quote (("\\.\\(ps\\|ps_pages\\|eps\\)\\'" . 
"texdoc %s") ("\\.pdf\\'" . "texdoc %s") 
("\\.\\(jpe?g\\|gif\\|png\\)\\'" . "xv %s") ("\\.dvi\\'" . "texdoc 
%s")))) ....
