Did I miss something?
Just to muddy the waters a bit, I've been emailing PDF files to Windows
and MAC types for years. I create a ps file in groff and then use
ps2pdfwr (the latest of the ps2pdf conversion utilites I've used over
the years) to create the PDF file, with the following switches:
ps2pdfwr -dEmbedAllFonts=true -dUseCIEColor=true -dPDFSETTINGS=/printer
\
groff_input_file.ps output_pdf_file.pdf
I've never had a complaint.
Cheers,
