Mikkel, You should look at pdfmark.pdf, which you should find in somewhere like:- /usr/share/doc/groff-1.22.3/pdf/pdfmark.pdf This describes how to embed pdf links. It also documents using the macro - mspdf which combines -ms and -mpdfmark, which is probably what you want. The macros and documentation are by Keith Marshall. Also, have a look at the program pdfroff, which can be used for producing the final pdf file using groff postscript and ghostscript. You can also use these macros with the -T pdf device, but if have forward references you need to run it twice in a pipeline such as:- groff -Tpdf -dPDF.EXPORT=1 -dLABEL.REFS=1 -ms -z file.trf 2>&1 | LC_ALL=C grep '^\\. *ds' | groff -Tpdf -ms - file.trf Cheers Deri
