I think the subject says it all. I'm looking for a package that will let ditroff drive an HP Laserjet+. Public domain is prefered, but the company is (amazingly) willing to spend a small amount of money to get this to work. Will anyone who is aware of such a package please contact me? Thank you. -- Dave Shanks ..!tektronix!tessi!atelabs!cds AT&E Laboratories cds@atelabs.UUCP 1400 NW Compton Suite 300 (503) 690-2000 Beaverton, OR 97006

A friend of mine drives an HP Laserjet with ditroff software from Elan Software in Los Gatos, California. (I'm afraid that's all the address I have.) She was very impressed with the ease of installation and the completeness of the product.

You can do pic, eqn,tbl, mm, mv,grap, and it can even read and use Bit-mapped raster images! It is quite good and quite complete. I use it with a PC and a HP LaserJet Series II and have had no problem with it yet. I think EROFF can come either as a ditroff or a ditroff/LaserJet package.

Is AT&T ever going to include support for popular laser printers in the Documenters Work Bench? The current version of DWB is useless for most users. It includes support for the APS typestters and for an oudated Imagen Laser. Anyone planning to have troff on their machines ends up spending quite a bit with 3rd party products that replace DWB in its entirety.
