Search features → Advanced → Websearch settings → Query Addition

Query Addition: Appends additional query parameters to the search. Search results will be served using "OR" logic. Supported values: Any search term to add to user query.

Advanced Google Site Search features

I added -filetype:pdf -filetype:ppt -filetype:doc and I'm not getting PDFs, DOCs, PPTs in results.
