Why not create your own error codes to match the error text messages?  You'll
find the listing in the source code.  I think it's either that, or patch the
source yourself.

I also think you'd be better chatting to someone like Matthias or Ricardo 
Pedroso
( they both watch this list ), the latter also being responsible for the 
Windows GUI
wrapper, gpdf2swf.  Ricardo also maintains a separate git clone. See wiki main

for the link,
