CUPS Filter for processing GNU troff [groff] Documents
This filter converts groff input (application/x-troff) to PostScript or PDF depending on how the filter is called:
grofftops converts groff imput to PostScript Level 2 (the DSC comments are not strictly conforming to Adobe's specifications)
grpfftopdf converts groff input to PDF (version 1.4)
The filter has been successfully tested with groff versions from 1.18.1 to 1.22.4. Besides the default page size names provided by groff (-paper=name), the filter accepts arbitrary page sizes by -pagesize=width,height where the numeric values may be tagged with dimension specifications like in, cm, or mm.
For both output formats, the used fonts are embedded (if available), but subsetted omnly for PDF output (by Ghostscript).
