Usage: $BASENAME [-v] [-s <factor>] <inFile.pdf> [outfile.pdf]
       $BASENAME -h
       $BASENAME -V

Parameters:
 -v          Verbose mode, prints extra information
             Use twice for even more information
 -h          Print this help to screen and exits
 -V          Prints version to screen and exits
 -s <factor> Changes the scaling factor, defaults to 0.95
             MUST be a number bigger than zero. 
             Eg. -s 0.8 for 80% of the original size 

Notes:
 - Options must be passed before the file names to be parsed
 - The output filename is optional. If no file name is passed
   the output file will have the same name/destination of the
   input file, with .SCALED.pdf at the end (instead of just .pdf)
 - Having the extension .pdf on the output file name is optional,
   it will be added if not present
 - Should handle file names with spaces without problems
 - The scaling is centered and using a scale bigger than 1 may
   result on cropping parts of the pdf.

Examples:
 $BASENAME myPdfFile.pdf
 $BASENAME myPdfFile.pdf myScaledPdf
 $BASENAME -v -v myPdfFile.pdf
 $BASENAME -s 0.85 myPdfFile.pdf myScaledPdf.pdf
 $BASENAME -v -v -s 0.7 myPdfFile.pdf
 $BASENAME -h
