I figured out how to do it using the drawing commands: \kx\D'c 1.5'\h'|\nx' \v'.25m'1\v'-.25m'
Here is what each part does: \kx - Mark horizontal position \D'c 1.5' - Draw a circle 1.5 units in radius \h'|\nx' - Go back to the marked position (| makes it absolute) The two spaces move to the center of the circle \v'.25m' - Go down 1/4 em; this centers the 1 \v'-.25m' - Go back up 1/4 em; this restores the vertical position For two digits, just use one space. For example, try this: $ troff | grops > x.ps \kx\D'c 1.5'\h'|\nx' \v'.25m'1\v'-.25m' .bp \kx\D'c 1.5'\h'|\nx' \v'.25m'10\v'-.25m' (ctl-d) $ Ruediger Haertel wrote: > > Hello Werner, > > thank you for your assistence.
