I'm facing the same issue.. any help??

The problem is that you didn't install xpdf and the automatic installer script is outdated, you can find updated version in my fork of this repo, or you can simply install xpdf following the instruction in the official website.

Does work from terminal. But does not work out of a python script or when installed as a pip package
