Yes.  Use "tc", which is designed to turn C/A/T typesetter codes
(as generated by raw troff) into Tek 4014 codes.
Many terminals, such as HP264x and VT24x, will emulate a
Tek 4014 well enough to use tc.

The resolution provided is rather poor.  However, it's good
enough to check for bad page breaks, widows, and mangled
tables or equations.
