[comp.lang.postscript] question eroff from sun to laser writer

masha@uw-june.UUCP (Marianne Mueller) (11/26/87)

Help!  We're trying to print generic troff files on an Apple Laser
Writer Plus, using Elan Computer Group's eroff, from a Sun 3/50.

Every attempt

	pic -D file | eqn | tbl | eroff -ms

messes up, and we only get the last two pages, no matter how long the
document.

(Note: eroff wants eqn to appear before tbl)

Has anyone else run into this?  Any hints or suggestions on what we're
doing wrong, or how to fix it, is greatly appreciated.

For the time being we just print files page by page, that is, 
sending only one page at a time to eroff.   (groan)  


thanks -
