>Environment:
Having an hp OfficeJet printer which is deskjet compatible
I tried to use groff -Tps output to ghostscript
>Description:
Using groff -mm -Tps .. | gs -sDEVICE=deskjet -sOutputFile=- -q
produced yards of useless output
>How-To-Repeat:
The input file to groff was:
.H 1 "TEST OF mm PACKAGE"
This is a simple text file
.I "to test"
the possibility of
.B troff " or " nroff
being printed by
-Tpost
on
.I hp
deskjet
The output file is available if required (it is longer) but
I noticed it it headed %!PS-Adobe-3.0
