We need to pass `disableFontFace` and `nativeImageDecoderSupport` because Node.js has no native support for `@font-face` and `Image`. Doing so makes it possible to render e.g., the Tracemonkey paper, which failed before. I made this PDF file the default because it's also the default in other examples/demos and because it showcases the possibilities better than the very simple hello world PDF file. Building the library with `gulp dist-install` is easier and is already recommended in the other examples.
