I have recently had to embed a PDF image in a groff document and so have
been using
groff -Tpdf
to do so.
But I find that my \m[red] etc color commands are not recognised (and there
are error messages..
Some work on Google led me to the Ubuntu gropdf manual, which states:
The default color for \m and \M is black; for colors defined in the
‘rgb’ color space setrgbcolor is used, for ‘cmy’ and
‘cmyk’
setcmykcolor, and for ‘gray’ setgray. Note that setcmykcolor
is a
PostScript LanguageLevel 2 command and thus not available on some
older
printers.
Searching for setrgbcolor tells me that it's a PS commend to be used:
.ds RED \X'ps: exec 1 0 0 setrgbcolor'
and then referring to \*[RED] to change the color from black, say.
But there is no change (and no error messages). Using groff 1.22.2
Any advice on using color in gropdf or groff -Tpdf ?
Thanks,
Bob
