Actually, pic produces troff commands as > its output and should work with any version of troff. I don't think pic will work with old (C/A/T) troff. You need ditroff. If you need DWB, an enhanced DWB w/bug fixes and printer drivers is available from Elan Computer Group. Elan Computer Group, Inc. sells a package called EROFF which is the AT&T Documenter's WorkBench (DWB), including device independent troff, nroff, tbl, eqn, pic, grap, macros, etc., plus bug fixes and enhancements including bitmap graphics inclusion, and a driver for your choice of printer (All HP LaserJet models, PostScript printers, or Imagen Impress printers). Automatic HP Soft Font downloading is done for the LaserJets. DWB and the printer drivers are also available separately. Soft copy screen previewers are also available for the SUN and CounterPoint workstations, and a version for X-windows will be available soon. Please write or call for more information. -- Jeff Lo ..!{ames,hplabs}!elan!jlo ELAN Computer Group, Inc. 410 Cambridge Avenue, Suite A, Palo Alto, CA 94306, (415) 322-2450
