Different macro packages provide different definitions of .PS and .PE.
Some seem to work with grohtml and some not:

$ cat foo.n
.PS
box
.PE
$ groff -ms -p -Thtml foo.n | fgrep img
pnmcrop: The image is entirely background; there is nothing to crop.
<p align="center" style="margin-top: 1em"><img
src="grohtml-26116-1.png" alt="Image grohtml-26116-1.png"></p>
$ groff -mm -p -Thtml foo.n | fgrep img
$ groff -me -p -Thtml foo.n | fgrep img
pnmcrop: The image is entirely background; there is nothing to crop.
<p align="center"><img src="grohtml-26182-1.png" alt="Image
grohtml-26182-1.png"></p>
$ groff -mpic -p -Thtml foo.n | fgrep img
$

(The last example uses minimal fallback .PS and .PE definitions, as
described in pic(1).)

So you could try grabbing the .PS and .PE macro definitions from one
of the macro files that does work (at least -ms and -me) and adding
them to your own document source file.
