I'm trying to make nroff space at 12 char. per inch, but the manual
says that nroff ignores the .ps parameter. Does anyone know how to do it?

For Diablo and Qume (and Spinwriter?), the argument -T450 matches the
hardware's 10-pitch setting, whilst -T450-12 matches 12-pitch.

This is kind of a Kludge but try putting the line length in chars

example

before;
.ll 7i ----->  70 chars in 10 pit/ 84 in 12pit

after
.ll 84 ----->  84 chars in 10 pit (might not fit on page)/84 chars 12 pit

Try
	nroff -T450-12 stuff...

We have acquired the Documenters WorkBench AT&T package for System V (src
included).  Does anyone know what modifications would be necessary for 
the ME macros of nroff under 4.2BSD to work under System V? 

Any information or help you can give me, would be much appreciated.

Thank you
Laurie
