- I finally bit the bullet and compiled up groff (and gcc and g++ and
- bison and libg++).
-
- I have successfully printed ez documents on my HP Laserjet IIP+ with
- Pacific Datasystems PostScript.
-
- BUT:
-
- All the pages are shifted up an inch so no page numbers are visible.
-
- The speculated-about formatcommand/PrintCommand in the FAQ to enable
- previewing and printing didn't work.
-
- The preview-free command set is the one that I got to work at all.
- (Although my postscript filter is different so I don't use lpr -v.)
-
- I have incorporated Nick Williams's changes to tmac.atk and the table of
- contents prints perfectly. It really is too bad that the page numbers
- don't!
-
- I am running ATK 5.0.0 from the R5 X tape on a Sun Sparc running
- SunOS 4.1.1. (I know, I should get the updates to Sun OS and ATK, but
- I haven't taken the time to bring home the CD's and do the grunt work.
- These revs of the software SHOULD work.)
-
- Help?
