The Finder will display documents with the icon of the default application configured to open the type in question, or with the application configured for the individual document. Applications that provide icons for the different document types they support usually do this by adapting the application icon instead of using a generic icon for the document type (exceptions aside of course). (I'm not at my Mac right now and hardly use the Finder in practice; I wouldn't be surprised if the Finder actually tagged application icon with a standard document type representation when apps don't provide their own icons.)
  
  
  If I associate, e.g., PDF's with Okular, then Finder shows small previews instead of icons, which is probably the default behavior.

  Indeed.
