I want to give URL mappings to DAM/Digital Assets of My sites. Especially for PDFs. Whenever I give a Download link to PDF it's Showing the full folder structure to the PDF. I want to shorten this. I am Using AEM 6.2 .

I’ve done this before by means of exposing the asset UUID and handling the download via a servlet. So, on author side, the authors adds an asset, then in a sling model, get the UUID and render the servlet path and uuid as a param. Aforementioned servlet would find that asset via the UUID and serve it. - Ahmed Musallam

You can also do the mapping in Sling resource resolver factory configuration

1. Go to system config manager and search for Sling resource resolver factory.
2. Add new entry "/content/dam/you-project-structure/>/" and "/content/dam/you-project-structure/</"

You can define URL mappings under the /etc/map location. Take a look at https://sling.apache.org/documentation/the-sling-engine/mappings-for-resource-resolution.html, which includes this example: enter image description here

Under /etc/map you can create a folder, and then within that folder create a .content.xml file that contains properties such as these:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jcr:root xmlns:sling="http://sling.apache.org/jcr/sling/1.0" xmlns:jcr="http://www.jcp.org/jcr/1.0"
          jcr:primaryType="sling:Mapping"
          sling:internalRedirect="/content/dam/the/full/path/to/your/file.pdf"
          sling:match=".+/content/short-url.pdf"/>
