From: William LeFebvre <phil@RICE.ARPA> Either I am missing something or device independent troff still does not let you set a line length greater than 7.54 inches. 1) Am I missing something or is this true? 2) Is it as easy to change as changing a compiled-in constant or are there internal buffers that depend on this restriction? 3) Has someone already done this or should I pursue it on my own? I need to be able to print things in landscape mode all the way across the page. In other words, I want to set the line length to 11i and the page length to 8.5i and print sideways on a piece of paper.
