Can you explain in your own words what is happening with .trin '\C'aq' please. I have a text procesing sequence that does not afford the time at the moment to re-engineer how I build pdfs, gs / pdfroff. Relying on groff to rip postcript and using ps2pdf to complete the pdf, the above trin function does not provide successful translation of special char flow through to pdf. Any other ways to get this to work without -Tpdf ? Thanks. On Wed, 05 Sep 2012 12:32:18 +0100, Deri James <deri.ja...@chuzzlewit.co.uk> wrote: On Wednesday 05 Sep 2012 06:31:41 Werner LEMBERG wrote:

(You will need a recent CVS version of groff to include the pdf device). Deri
