Possible memory leak warning

See original GitHub issue

Heyho,

I just installed markdown-pdf via npm install markdown-pdf -g on my laptop, and when using it, it tells me, there is a possible memory leak:

$ markdown-pdf myMarkdown.md
(node) warning: possible EventEmitter memory leak detected. 2 end listeners added. Use emitter.setMaxListeners() to increase limit.

Using windows7, node 5.10.1

Output looks fine and as expected.
