This is the code that I have...

please run this code and tell me if it works?

It is same code as yours. Since I can't upload my pdf file, I have searched and found another pdf file it fails on. I don't know if it has to do with tables.

If you run u'r code on this, it will not work. 

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Data::Dumper;
use LWP::UserAgent;

my $pdf_filename="/tmp/file.pdf";
my $pdf_link = "http://investor.google.com/pdf/2010Q1_earnings_google.
+pdf";

$client = LWP::UserAgent->new();

my $capture = $client->get("$pdf_link", ":content_file" => "$pdf_filen
+ame");

convert_pdf_to_text();

sub convert_pdf_to_text
{
    use CAM::PDF;
    use CAM::PDF::PageText;

    my $pdf = CAM::PDF->new($pdf_filename) || die "$CAM::PDF::errstr\n
+";
    foreach (1..($pdf->numPages()))
    {
        my $x=CAM::PDF::PageText->render($pdf->getPageContentTree($_))
+;
        print "$x\n";
    }
}
