The postscript (and hplj) output drivers for groff lack support for printing on A4 paper. Setting up for A4 paper is not documented for groff. The following file could be supplied with the groff distribution to support the use of A4 paper (used in much of the world instead of the Letter format used widely in the US). This is a modified version of /usr/lib/groff/font/devps/DESC. I don't know the best way to set this up at install time. In my system, I have both files (DESC.a4 and DESC.letter) and a symlink from DESC to the correct one). The modifications are to the "unitwidth" (reduced from 1000 to 970, and "paperlength" (increased from 792000 to 841888). The hplj output driver needs a similar fix, but the parameters are different. -Doug- Example devps/DESC (for A4): res 72000 hor 1 vert 1 sizescale 1000 unitwidth 970 sizes 1000-10000000 0 styles R I B BI family T fonts 9 0 0 0 0 0 SS S ZD ZDR tcommand postpro grops broken 7 paperlength 841888 print lpr
