[Groff] Manuals in pdf format

Manuals in pdf format are very useful. You can search, jump, etc.
A few points, though:

- If there's a reference to page N in the text, you need to add viii to it. What's more: you have to remember to add ... That' difficult, you know.
  The simplest thing to do is to use 9 after viii, not 1.

- I find something interesting somewhere, I try it out and it does not work. Yeah, this thing does not belong to groff, it does belong to a macro package.
   The header says:  "The GNU Troff Manual"
   The header on the next page says: "Macro Packages"
   Closer but not close enough.
   They both should say: "The ms macro package".
