DWB 3.2 is the very latest Bell Labs research version of troff and related tools. It features excellent PostScript support, ISO 8859-1 (Latin 1) character set, new tbl, comprehensive man macros. There are new tools for building font tables automatically from a PostScript printer. There is an alternative troff hyphenation algorithm that's 10 times more accurate than the standard one. A batch version of the Picasso drawing program is included; this superset of pic supports color, rotation, scaling, PostScript file inclusion and many other advantages over pic (which is also included). The documentation is considerably improved (it's the same documentation used internally in Bell Labs). I'm responsible for technical support-- I cannot respond to any questions about ordering or pricing, but will be glad to answer questions about features, performance, robustness, portability, etc. The PEC codes below presumably mean something when you call your AT&T sales office (the one you got your computer from). If you are currently using DWB 2.0 you will find too many improvements to note in this short space. 1041-DWB: 3B2/400-500 DOCUMENTER'S WORKBENCH (DWB) RELEASE 3.2 1071-DWB: 3B2/600-700 DOCUMENTER'S WORKBENCH (DWB) RELEASE 3.2 (also 3B2/1000 Model 60 and 70) 1361-DWB: 3B2/1000-80 DOCUMENTER'S WORKBENCH (DWB) RELEASE 3.2 1331-DWB: 6386 DOCUMENTER'S WORKBENCH (DWB) RELEASE 3.2 1341-DWB: 6386/33 DOCUMENTER'S WORKBENCH (DWB) RELEASE 3.2 1353-DWB: StarServer-S DOCUMENTER'S WORKBENCH (DWB) RELEASE 3.2 1371-DWB: SYSTEM 7000 DOCUMENTER'S WORKBENCH (DWB) RELEASE 3.2
