In a more general sense, I've looked in vain for conversion programs between markup-style [I hope that is the correct term] formats such as runoff, nroff, etc and the WYSIWUG genus. Such programs do not seem to exist. I'm not sure why this is. Is the task THAT hard, or is it just lack of demand? BTW, my use would be to extract 'man' pages and print them on a PeeCee with a HPLJ. I found a PD dos version of nroff once, but it did not output ^L's, vital to the LJ. -- A host is a host from coast to coast.....wb8foz@mthvax.cs.miami.edu & no one will talk to a host that's close............(305) 255-RTFM Unless the host (that isn't close)......................pob 570-335 is busy, hung or dead....................................33257-0335
