I have no rendering problems using groff 1.22.4 with Evince or Okular on my Debian bullseye-based systems. Since that observation is likely not helpful to you, I am attaching the source I used, just in case; "grout" output; and PostScript. $ groff -e -mm -Z EXPERIMENTS/mcguckin.roff >| mcguckin.grout $ groff -e -mm EXPERIMENTS/mcguckin.roff >| mcguckin.ps You might first see if this PostScript file behaves differently; then, format my "grout" file with grops and check the result. I used to use Evince exclusively, but in bullseye it has a serious defect where the sidebar is no longer resizable, so I tend to use Okular these days. Regards, Branden
