How to search for a specific file type?

In search box, just type has: attachment filename:pdf and press search you will get all the pdf attachment files. Simply add “has: attachment” to the start of any keyword query and you are limiting the search by giving specific file type. In the place of pdf you can give the required file type like “has:attachment filename:(filetype)”.

Really it will be very useful for the users who send an attachment without body and subject. Now it is easy to locate the particular file attachment.
