This response is typical when you have invoked a macro which needs a corresponding closing macro at the point where you finish with the material governed by the opening macro. More than that one cannot say, without seeing your "simple troff file"! I suggest you post this (at least as far as material on the second page) or (if you want to keep the actual material confidential) a file with exactly the same macros but with substitute text.
