Maybe, but not at all for the purpose I have described. It's a character
set displayer, not a font displayer, and it's basically useless to show
what's in a font as it replaces everything which isn't in the font with
characters from some other font.

Haven't heard of any license trouble, but whenever ghostscript kills
itself on some pdf, xpdf manages fine. xpdf also has some pdf->ps
conversion to speak of - ghostscript just turns everything into a huge
pile of curves.
