You could use tabulizer package.

library(tabulizer)
manual_url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/magick/magick.pdf" 
manual <- extract_text(manual_url) 

For installing tabulizer follow exactly these steps.

I had the same problem on Windows. It was no R problem. In my case, I used ImageMagick 64-bit but had GhostScript 32-bit installed. After installing the 64-bit version of GhostScript it worked without any issues.
