NAME

       roff2ps - transform roff code into ps mode

SYNOPSIS

       roff2ps [groffer_option...] [--] [filespec...]
       roff2ps -h | --help
       roff2ps -v | --version

       The  options  -v  and --version print the version information of the program to standard output and exit.
       The options -h and --help print a usage information of the  program  to  standard  output  and  stop  the
       program instantly.

       All  other  options  are  assumed  to  be  groffer options.  They are internally passed to groffer.  They
       override the behavior of the program.  The options are optional, they can be omitted.

       The filespec arguments correspond to the filespec arguments of groffer.  So they are either the names  of
       existing,  readable  files  or  -  for standard input, or the name of a man page or a groffer(1) man page
       search pattern.  If no filespec is specified standard input is assumed automatically.
