dc.format.mimetype is just a normal metadata field, which means you'd
have to add values to it yourself. It is not populated by DSpace when
you upload a bitstream (and it can't be, since it's a field of the
item, not of a bitstream, for which there is a 1:N mapping). Check the
full view of any item with a bitstream and you'll see it's not there
because it doesn't have any values.

Searching for "pdf" probably works for you because you have the file
name somewhere within a metadata field.
