Excellent! Even more practical than xeyes. :-)

It would be good to see where it’s looking for fonts. It could be that
FreeType allows a font search path to be specified via an environment
variable or so.
Nixpkgs does this:
substituteInPlace $out/etc/xpdfrc \\
--replace /usr/local/share/ghostscript/fonts ${base14Fonts} \\
--replace '#fontFile' fontFile
Perhaps we could patch xpdfrc to point to GhostScript’s font directory?
Thanks!
