-exec is not suitable here because it spawns a `ls` process per each 
found entry; aside from being slow, this disallows sorting at all.
You'd prefer
find /home/joseph/ -iname "*.pdf" |xargs ls -l --sort=time

or, to be space-proof
find /home/joseph/ -iname "*.pdf" -print0 |xargs -0 ls -l --sort=time

A little late but HTH.
