I figured out the trouble here--PEBKAC.

You have to have Okular in "Browse" mode in the toolbar, as opposed to
"Text Selection" or some other thing.  This setting is persistent across
application launches on a per-document basis, which I did not expect.

So PDF hyperlinks in man(7) are working beautifully in Okular too.

[bug #63354] Refine fallbacks.tmac

[Dave]

Follow-up Comment #33, bug #63354 (group groff):

Bjarni's proposed \[u2012] definition in comment #26 has two problems.
* It relies on a register (lfiguredash) that calculates the width of a zero
and a hair space based on the font size at the time the register is defined. 
This value will thus be incorrect at any other font size used later in the
document.
* It emits an extraneous apostrophe.  This input:

.nr lfiguredash \w'0'u-(2*\w'\^'u)
.char \[u2012] \^\v'-0.3m'\D'l \n[lfiguredash]u 0m'\v'0.3m\^'
.rm lfiguredash
.
1\[u2012]2\[u2012]3

produces the attached typeset output.

This (and some related proposed conditionals) is the subject of bug #64004.

groff already ships with Palatino (URW-Palladio) in roman, italic,
bold, and bold-italic.  Nothing special is required to access the
fonts.  The single-letter identifier is P, thus
  .ft PR = Palatino roman
  .ft PI = Palatino italic
etc.

  The manual pages for gropdf and grops should gave you enough
information.

  Looking at "fonts_x.ps" and "fonts_n.ps" shows you how the
glyphs look like

in the groff package hdtbl,
residing in the build directory ".../contrib/hdtbl/examples" in
the git repository and

in Debian
"/usr/share/doc/groff-base/examples/hdtbl".

  The Palatino fonts are on pages [26,29].

Font Palatino

[Mikkel Meinike Nielsen]

Hey fellow gruff users

Actually writing this makes me wonder how many we are around the world that
actually uses groff/troff on a regular basis.

What do you think a hundred?

Well I do use groff on a regular basis and have done that since I guess
2008. I've been playing with fonts every now and again but that's a long
time ago. I remember that Peter Scheffer had made a script that you could
quite easily add a true type font that you found somewhere and I did that
but that was many years ago.

I didn't use any non-basic fonts for a long time.

Now I am in a situation where I want to use the font called Palatino which
is in the ghost script package fonts. What would be the easiest step for me
to get Palatino working in my groff ms document?
