 From my experience, and looking ingo various gs versions, the exact meaning
of SAFER vs PARANOIDSAFER is not completely consistent over tze 7.xx and 8.xx
versions, though only PAPANOIDSAFER is intended to prohibit file reading "at all"
with the following exceptions:
- files listed on the command line
- files in directories listed in LIBPATH environment variable
- files in directories listed in FONTPATH environment variable
(the latter two internally set to compiled-in defaults if not explicitely
set)
are permitted for read access.

Thus, I'd suggest to set the FONTPATH variable according to the directories
where fonts should be searched.
