An alternative, as someone already pointed out, is to have .PGFORM more
than once at the start of your document, but conditionally use only one
of them.
In addition to the `n' and `t' conditions described in section 16 of
CSTR 54, there's also the `.T' string register described in `Built-in
Registers' in the groff manual.
$ printf '%s\n' '.if n nroff.' '.if t troff.' 'Device is \*(.T.' |

nroff. Device is utf8.

Cheers, Ralph.
