Hi,

John, I would prefer to stick with LaTeX for printing vice groff!
The reason why I say this is groff just can not produce nice output.
Yes it can do postscript, but the output it awefull compared to
a good latex page.  The way I work it is that I get sgmlfmt to spit
out LaTeX and then I hand trim for final release, works like a charm
and gives me the BEST output I've seen.

Gary
P.S. I think it might be a good idea for someone who understands
     our version of the linuxdoc DTD to write up a basic instruction
     manual (example.sgml??) as our version is different:)
