Which implies, for the case of documents where figures (etc.) differ
in PostScript/PDF and plain text versions, that there will still be a
substantial amount of manual effort required. See draft sections 1 & 8.
Generation of text, PostScript, and PDF from single troff source is not
only feasible, it is de rigeur.  It seems silly to specify a toolset
purportedly to provide benefits of automation, but not to specify
automated processing of a widely-used source format which is quite
amenable to automated processing.
