Package: groff-base Version: 1.22.3-9 Severity: minor Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
I used the following to export man pages (ie ssh_config, written in mdoc-style) to a pdf file for double-sided printing: zcat /usr/share/man/man5/ssh_config.5.gz |groff -man -rD1 -Tps - |ps2pdf - ssh_config.pdf The page numbers in the resulting pdf file are placed incorrectly. This does not affect documents written using the "man" format, for example it will not affect the man.pdf resulting from the following: zcat /usr/share/man/man1/man.1.gz |groff -man -rD1 -Tps - |ps2pdf - man.pdf -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-8-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages groff-base depends on: ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u3 ii libgcc1 1:6.3.0-18+deb9u1 ii libstdc++6 6.3.0-18+deb9u1 groff-base recommends no packages.
