Comment (by kencu):

 I recall now -- I'm sorry. I use `ps2ascii` to do this function, which is
 in the `ghostscript` package. Not sure if it's 100% identical to what
 `pstotext` does, but works for what I need it to do. It seems to read
 `pdf` files too. It had no trouble with your test pdf.

 I had trouble with it once in a script, fixed by running it as sudo.

 {{{
 $ port -v installed ghostscript
 The following ports are currently installed:
   ghostscript @9.26_0+x11 (active) platform='darwin 8' archs='ppc'
 date='2018-12-10T00:04:15-0800'
 $ port contents ghostscript | grep ps2ascii
   /opt/local/bin/ps2ascii
   /opt/local/share/man/de/man1/ps2ascii.1
   /opt/local/share/man/man1/ps2ascii.1.gz
 $ /opt/local/bin/ps2ascii test.pdf
      This is a test.
