If you have some money to spend, you might look at Image Networks
Inc.'s Xroff package.  It works well under System V (after we fix
it a little); it is really developed for 4.2BSD and so should work
wonders there.  The main elements seem to be fonts and a post-
processor; you can also install their versions of troff, tbl, etc.
I'm sorry; I don't have their address.  Anybody?
