Description

Using the --extract option on a pdf with embedded files I am seeing that not all of the attachments are extracted.  There are several files embedded that contain the same name.  The names that are exactly the same are accounted for with a suffix of (1) etc.  However when there is a similar name that is not the same case the parse does not account for changing the name with the suffix and thus overwrites the file on disk.  Example
FW Letter,.msg
FW letter.msg

Will result in only one attachment extracted.  Would it be possible to update the filename comparison to account for windows file systems which see those two files as the same name?

Thanks!
