Normalization based on file extension is problematic, since files having manually changed extensions or no extensions can't be normalized. An alternative to normalizing based on file extension is to have the normalization path based on FITS output, preferably the DROID/PRONOM format identification. However, FITS ouptut is not always reliable. This table identifies some filetypes that DROID has trouble identifying, and shows the tool output for fileUtility and exifTool for the problem files (since if the DROID identification is wrong or missing we may fall back on fileUtility or exifTool output).
