Device-independent troff is available (under license!) as part
of AT&T's Documenter's WorkBench software.  I've been involved
with bringing it up on 4.nBSD-based systems, and there wasn't
much problem except on machines where varargs can't be handled
by the old "all the world's a VAX" kludgery.  There are
several bugs, however; if you can afford it your best bet is
probably to get a supported, enhanced version from some vendor
such as SoftQuad in Toronto.

AT&T licensing phone # is (800)828-UNIX.
