I am a newbie on freebsd. Reporting from 9.3 Release where I have installed via 'pkg install' groff-1.22.2_1. I did this to obtain the -Tpdf output option, which is not available on the stock groff-1.19.2 which comes with the 9.3 distribution. It works fine, but the manpage which ought to describe the pdf option is the wrong one. It is for groff-1.19.2 although dated July 2014. I know from using groff-1.22 on other machines that updated manpages are available and provide these if this wasn't simply an oversight. Hope this is helpful. P.S. I am glad that the new version didn't overwrite the old so that I can see both the system manpage for groff in /usr/share/man/man1 and your manpage in /usr/local/man/man1.
