Mano thanks, Gavin. I was trying to convert a bunch of .md files in a pdf book, without any success via Latex, for some odd unicode chars impossible to handle. With groff it was just a breeze! Thanks

Thanks!
I was interested in doing the same because of groff's faster compile time. But you showed a lot of other really cool stuff

Thank you for this. LaTeX is so verbose in comparison.

LaTeX is like C++ or Java (or COBOL) when compared to the simplicity C and Lisp.

This is perfect. simple wins.

Anyone know why the markdown headers aren’t rendering? They all appear the same size. If I put more than three hashes, it also throws a weird standard input error - “macro warning: adjusted level 4 book mark; should be <= 3”. Everything but headers seem to be working fine

.eps stands for “encapsulated” postscript, if I am not mistaken.

So, it says:
pdfroff not found. Please select a different --pdf-engine or install pdfroff -- see also
-- Debian comes with groff, but not the full "groff" package and psutils:
apt install groff
-- it should grab both of them
