Show PDF Icon in Listings
To show the PDF (or any other icon) in SharePoint
1. Create a 16x16 icon file, call it pdf16.gif and upload it to the /60/TEMPLATE/IMAGES folder
2. Then open /60/TEMPLATE/XML/DOCICON.XML and in the "By Extension" section add the following line
< key="pdf" value="pdf16.gif">
Restart IIS and you're done.

Don't forget to make a full crawl and if the pdf icon have a diferent name than pdf16.gif you have to have one with that name to show in the search results.
As you've described in this post, I followed the directory path. But actually no XML file was found. So then by runnig a search action, DOCICON.XML was found but in "12" instead of "60".Here, value fields in "By extention" part are set by file name in "IC*.GIF" name format( for example:ICDOC.GIF,ICDOCX.GIF,...). In this case I renamed the file to "ICPDF.GIF" but I haven't restart the IIS yet. I'm writting to ask you if there is still any other point to be considered before restarting the IIS.
Hey thanks for the post, After doing that it looks like i have permission problem. Even i have full permission on Library, but the icon is not shown, ot cross sign is shown, path in properties looks okay, (http://portal/_layouts/images/pdf.gif)but its not shown.
