No, I don't think any of this will work for the original poster. groff(1)'s -V option shows the pipeline of programs that will be run. It's useful to understand that tbl(1) sees the input first, before troff processes .so or similar. That's why there's soelim(1) that may help in this case. -- Cheers, Ralph.
