Could not read exception when reading from url

[TheAngelM97]

I installed and configured everything and managed to get text from a local file.
But when I try to get it from a public url it returns a

Could not read exception

Here's my code: (I am using mac)

Throws exception
return Pdf::getText('{any public url to a pdf file}', '/usr/local/bin/pdftotext');

Works fine
return Pdf::getText('{local file}', '/usr/local/bin/pdftotext');
