.PDF and .pdf are both valid extensions for PDF's, and the difference of extension does not drastically affect the file's content.
Many systems / programs will create / export PDF's with a ".PDF" extension rather than ".pdf", but pdfocr fails for PDF's with ".PDF" extension. Both formats should be supported.
In the source, line 167 reads
if outfile[-3..-1] != "pdf"
then it goes onto print an error message. This line should be changed to also check for "PDF", or compare the strings in a case-insensitive way.
