Pdfminer on Windows searches for pdf2text.py.exe #424

When extracting a PDF using the pdfminer method, it looks for an application called pdf2text.py, but the spawn package adds .exe to it automatically. Obviously this file doesn't exists, so it throws an exception.

Same issue. Extracting PDFs is completely broken on Windows if someone pip installs then tries to extract from PDF with either PDFminer or tesseract.
