Following up myself, I had a discussion with maintainer of pst-pdf and it seems that it is not easy to make preview support recent luatex natively. Hence, I added the following line to preview.dtx: \IfFileExists{luatex85.sty}{\RequirePackage{luatex85}}{} Emmanuel, do you have a chance to install the latest preview from AUCTeX git and give it roll?
