The files:-
pdfms.tmac - prototype macros to add pdf features to ms documents.
To run use something like:-
GROFF_COMMAND=./test-groff ./pdfmom --roff -ms -M. -mpdfms -dpapersz=a4 -tp
-P-pa4 doc/ms.ms > t.pdf
Assuming you are in the build directory of a recent groff, and you have copied
this tmac to the build directory.
Groff-PDF-Features.pdf - this some documentation for using pdf features in
groff.
Groff-PDF-Features.ms - the source file (written with ms macros plus
pdfms.tmac). It is also an example of what can be achieved with ms macros.
Note this also uses sboxes.tmac as well. You may notice a few problems with
the boxes, I have a fix to sboxes which I have not released yet.
