# Wrapper for GNU groff to convert man pages to a few formats
|
|
#
|
|
# Usage: manconv.sh FORMAT [PAPER_SIZE] < in.1 > out.suffix
|
|
#
|
|
# FORMAT can be ascii, utf8, ps, or pdf. PAPER_SIZE can be anything that
|
|
# groff accepts, e.g. a4 or letter. See groff_font(5). PAPER_SIZE defaults
|
|
# to a4 and is used only when FORMAT is ps (PostScript) or pdf.
|
|
#
|
|
# Multiple man pages can be given at once e.g. to create a single PDF file
|
|
# with continuous page numbering.
