Please, take into account that pdf_text_t is opaque, so you shouldn't 
need to access path->data. Not sure what you mean with only first 
character being stored in path->data anyway... The pdf_text_t object 
stores the string in UTF-32HE, which in most cases is UTF-32LE. This 
means that for an ASCII string, each byte is expanded into 4 bytes. For 
example, in UTF-32LE you would get:

'A'  -> 'A''/0''/0''/0'
'A''B' -> 'A''/0''/0''/0' 'B''/0''/0''/0'

Is this what you see? I mean, if you try to printf() path->data, of 
course you will get only first character, as printf() will stop in the 
first NUL byte. printf() can't be used with UTF-32.
