Comment (by gitlost):

 A plugin implementing the direct shell-out to Ghostscript, by-passing
 Imagick/ImageMagick, is now available in the WP repository as
 [https://wordpress.org/plugins/gs-only-pdf-preview/ GS Only PDF Preview]
 (thanks anonymous plugin reviewer!).

 It contains a worked-up version of the `WP_Image_Editor_GS` class
 prototyped in
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/39262/39262.patch
 39262.patch] (see [https://github.com/gitlost/gs-only-pdf-
 preview/blob/master/includes/class-gopp-image-editor-gs.php
 GOPP_Image_Editor_GS]), and claims to address the security concerns of
 shelling out.
