Name

       pdfmom - produce PDF documents using the mom macro package for groff

Synopsis

       pdfmom [-Tpdf] [groff-options] [file ...]

       pdfmom -Tps [pdfroff-options] [groff-options] [file ...]

       pdfmom -v
       pdfmom --version

Description

       pdfmom  is a wrapper around groff(1) that facilitates the production of PDF documents from
       files formatted with the mom macros.

       pdfmom prints to  the  standard  output,  so  output  must  usually  be  redirected  to  a
       destination  file.   The size of the final PDF can be reduced by piping the output through
       ps2pdf(1).

       If called with the -Tpdf option (which is  the  default),  pdfmom  processes  files  using
       groff's  native  PDF  driver,  gropdf(1).   If -Tps is given, processing is passed over to
       pdfroff, which uses groff's PostScript driver.  In  either  case,  multiple  runs  of  the
       source file are performed in order to satisfy any forward references in the document.

       pdfmom  accepts  all  the same options as groff.  If -Tps is given, the options associated
       with pdfroff are accepted as well.  When pdfmom calls pdfroff, the options “-mpdfmark -mom
       --no-toc” options are implied and should not be given on the command line.  Equally, it is
       not necessary to supply the -mom or -m mom options when -Tps is absent.

       PDF integration with the mom macros is discussed in full in  the  manual  “Producing  PDFs
       with groff and mom”, which was itself produced with pdfmom.

       If  called  with  the -v or --version options, pdfmom displays its version information and
       exits.
