We assume that your attribute (PDF) default value is 0 or 'null'.Now you have to get those products which have values in the database. You need to get them from product collection on the basis of attribute filter after you can delete files other than the resultset values.

 $collection = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->getCollection();

//filter product by attribute value 
$collection->addAttributeToFilter(
  array(
   array('attribute'=> 'pdf','neq' => '0'),
   array('attribute'=> 'pdf','neq' => '')
);
