I'm not sure you'll have this granular of a level of control over what you see in the OOTB browser component - it's going to just show the entire folder contents. You could, however, develop your own list of documents from the selected folder, and use array tricks to filter out all extra PDF documents from the list prior to displaying.

Hi Mike, i want to view only one pdf document (i've got many more in the father folder) and hide all the other (not visible by the interface), meanwhile all the other documents of different extension in the folder must be visible (and clickable). For example, as shown in the example of this url Document and Folder Browser Component - Appian 23.4 i want to see only one report and not all the other, meanwhile the hidden documents in the component are present in the folder

When you say "selected document", do you mean as in the user has clicked on some of the documents within the browser field to highlight them? If not, can you clarify what the exact user experience is that you're thinking of?

Not sure whether the D+F browser can do that, but you could build a custom browser to implement this.
