I've posted this info once before, but here it is again.  Elan does make
a DWB package for the UNIX-pc, and it lists for about $800, excluding
the fonts, which are available from HP (through Elan).

For the past year I've been using a DWB package on my UNIX-pc from Textware
International, PO Box 14 Harvard Square Station, Cambridge MA 02238.
For $600 I got ditroff, the HP Laserjet postprocessor (ditplus), eqn,
tbl, grap, pic, PLUS a complete set of Times Roman-like and Helvetica-like
fonts.  I've been very satisfied with it.  I've not had a chance to use
the package from Elan, but from its product description is seems complete.
