     Does anyone have a system for  getting  text  converted
from  nroff/troff  to  a PC based word processor?  Thanks in
advance.

I have a very simply nroff (-me) to WordPerfect 4.2 conversion scheme that
consists of WP macros that search for and replace footnotes, underlining,
and the other *basics*.  You could probably do something similar for other
word processors.
