    List<Attachment> attList = new List<Attachment>();
    // This will extract all blob attachments from email
    // For text type attachment Messaging.Inboundemail.TextAttachment can be used

Hi @Supriya
You have to use js validation for extension ".pdf"
Visualforce component to upload a file 
<apex:inputFile required="true" value="{!document.body}" filename="{!document.name}" onchange="check(this)" id="filePath"/>


In the above line 'check(this)' is the javascript function. 
<script type = "text/javascript">
function check(obj) { 
var path = obj.value;
var ext = path.substring(path.lastIndexOf('.') + 1);

if(ext !="pdf")
{
obj.value = null;
window.alert("Please select only pdf");
return false;
}
}
</script>

I hope it is helpful for you please select my answer as best answer.
