   ...the manual comes with the emacs distribution, but only in TeX
   format and I have no means of converting this in to postscript
   format (i.e I don't have TeX)

Get tut.cis.ohio-state.edu:pub/gnu/texi2roff/texi2roff.shar.Z or
osu-cis!~/gnu/texi2roff/texi2roff.shar.Z and use it to convert TeXinfo
sources into *roff sources.  I've used it with groff to produce
PostScript, with pretty good results.
