Remember that the library won't print any message when compiled for
'release'. The printed warnings/errors are just for development
purposes, so the user won't get any 'printed' message from libgnupdf.
Instead of that, we return an error code to the program using the
library and calling pdf_text_init(), so that when it gets the error code
 it can print whatever message depending on the value.
