  12. We have tried to user groff producing 8 bit feeding xtroff but without
  13. success. For 7-bit ascii it works perfect but when character values above
  14. 127 decimal enters xtroff it complain saying:
  15.  
  16. "Bad character (-27) in  PutCharacter at..."
  17.  
  18. Is there a fix for this ?

  20. Thanks in advance !
