You need these lines in your config file which is in c:/Documents and
Settings/<username>/Application Data/Subversion/config

### Section for configuring miscelleneous Subversion options. [miscellany]
enable-auto-props = yes

[auto-props]
*.pdf = svn:mime-type: application/pdf

Any pdf file you add will then be treated as binary.
