Keith, thank you.

I get errors with pdfroff:

$ /usr/local/bin/pdfroff -ms -mpdfmark z.1 > z.pdf
troff: fatal error: can't find macro file pdfmark
troff: fatal error: can't find macro file pdfmark
$ /usr/local/bin/pdfroff -mspdf z.1 > z.pdf
troff: fatal error: can't find macro file spdf
troff: fatal error: can't find macro file spdf
$ pkg info -xl groff|grep pdfmark
        /usr/local/share/doc/groff-1.22.2/pdf/pdfmark.pdf
        /usr/local/share/groff/1.22.2/tmac/pdfmark.tmac
$ pkg info -xl groff | grep spdf
        /usr/local/share/groff/1.22.2/tmac/spdf.tmac
$ 

Using groff directly seems to work:

$ /usr/local/bin/groff -Tpdf -ms -mpdfmark z.1 > z.pdf
$ 

Am I using pdfroff wrong?
Or is this some misconfig on my system?

Thank you

Anton
