I see. Section 6.2 of that document goes into detail (it's mom-pdf.{mom,pdf} in the groff-base package in Debian-based distributions. I see nothing about CMaps, though. And nothing about SS or ZDR, though that won't be necessary if we perform a file type check in gropdf.pl and issue a diagnostic. I'll take a note to add warnings about these to the gropdf man page, and we can coordinate changes to gropdf.pl as time permits. Regards, Branden
