Describe the proposed feature

Hello,
On Windows, it requires the x64 version of GhostScript to be installed. However, if a 32-bit version of GhostScript is installed, it can also fall back to this version instead of failing. Some tools (like CutePDF Writer and PDFill Tools) install GhostScript 32-bit by default.
Error message:
