Haven't played with Ghostscript in ages but will always have a soft spot for it.
That said, using it (in a VM) as a workaround requires more steps and a bit more technical interaction that destroys the original seamless experience. Apple has been aggressive about tightening down the OS (still pissed that strace is neutered by default); taking the security approach of just not doing the work at all is really lame on their part.
Theoretically they provide the ability to do just what I'm suggesting: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/configuring-the-macos-app-sandbox https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/configuring-...

It is getting ridiculous that I have to run multiple VMs for accessing old programs and data; but then at least I should be grateful we have functioning VMs?
