This is probably a really silly question. I'm trying to convert 
various troff documents to atk format. The troff stuff uses the
'ms' macro package and so I've been using the command

% rofftext -t -ms Doccy > atkDoccy

but all this does it produce an atk skeleton...that is:


\begindata{text, 630704}
\textdsversion{12}
\template{roff}




\majorheading{        

}
\enddata{text,630704}

But the Doccy is fairly substantial! (and known formatted correctly)

We are running Sun 3/50s SunOS4.0.3. X11R3 (Our Andrew Version is the one
that was released on the X11R3 tape with no patches)

hmmm...can anyone help me?
regards...
                                          Chris.
