I tried it recently but received only blank pages in the ps file. Also, using `sgmlfmt -f ascii' it produced 86 character lines instead of 80. After some investigation, I found following inside the generated ps code: /Q{moveto show}bind def (TEXT TO BE SHOWN)900177.498 188 Q As far as I understand the way sgmlfmt works, it produces roff code and passes it to groff, which converts it to the desired format. I suspect it's sgmlfmt which produces bogus code and makes groff/grops place the output almost 900000 points right from the page. Also, the font size is bigger than before. I'm pretty new in sgml and I don't think I could solve this by myself. Does somebody have a clue what changed in the code causing this problem? Thanks in advance, ian ________________________________________________________ 1stUp.com - Free the Web Get your free Internet access at http://www.1stUp.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
