My company, MKS Inc., has a product we call MKS SQPS.  It is a complete
Troff package based on the enhanced version of the Documentor's
Workbench for DOS.  It includes all the pre-processors, macro packages and new
features which were designed by Softquad Inc. in Toronto.  Most
important of all, for you, we support the HP LaserJet Series II printer
as well as the Postscript printers.   We can also provide the same
software through Softquad for a whole host of Unix machines and printer
support for these include Hp LaserJet, Postcript, AT&T 495, Imagen, and
imPRESS printers.
