Yes. I am attaching 3 documents: - A stripped down section of the CV template (hdtbl-issue.ms). - A macro file demonstrating the issue (hdtbl-issue-macros.ms). - A macro file demonstrating a temporary fix (hdtbl-issue-macros- working.ms). The command I have been using to compile: groff -ms -m hdtbl hdtbl-issue.ms > hdtbl-issue.ps && ps2pdf hdtbl- issue.ps hdtbl-issue.pdf Environment: Manjaro Linux The "working" macro file has only one change. Line 72 contains .ne 1.5i > Studying the differences between the two and the macros and requests > they do or don't call will likely help us to pinpoint the issue. That would be amazing! Thank you for looking into this. Kind regards, Mike
