NAME
grodvi - convert groff output to TeX dvi format
SYNOPSIS
grodvi [ -dlv ] [ -Fdir ] [ -ppapersize ] [ -wn ] [ files...
]
It is possible to have whitespace between a command line
option and its parameter.
DESCRIPTION
grodvi is a driver for groff that produces TeX dvi format.
Normally it should be run by groff -Tdvi. This will run
gtroff -Tdvi; it will also input the macros in
/usr/share/groff/1.19.2/tmac/dvi.tmac.
The dvi file generated by grodvi can be printed by any cor-
rectly-written dvi driver. The troff drawing primitives are
implemented using the tpic version 2 specials. If the
driver does not support these, the \D commands will not pro-
duce any output.
There is an additional drawing command available:
[rs]D'R dh dv'
Draw a rule (solid black rectangle), with one corner at
the current position, and the diagonally opposite cor-
ner at the current position +(dh,dv). Afterwards the
current position will be at the opposite corner. This
produces a rule in the dvi file and so can be printed
even with a driver that does not support the tpic spe-
cials unlike the other \D commands.
The groff command [rs]X'anything' is translated into the
same command in the dvi file as would be produced by
[rs]special{anything} in TeX; anything may not contain a
newline.
For inclusion of EPS image files, -Tdvi loads pspic.tmac
automatically, providing the PSPIC macro. Please check
groff_tmac(5) for a detailed description.
Font files for grodvi can be created from tfm files using
tfmtodit(1). The font description file should contain the
following additional commands:
internalname name
The name of the tfm file (without the .tfm
extension) is name.
checksum n The checksum in the tfm file is n.

User Commands GRODVI(1)
designsize n The designsize in the tfm file is n.
These are automatically generated by tfmtodit.
The default color for \m and \M is black. Currently, the
drawing color for \D commands is always black, and fill
color values are translated to gray.
In troff the \N escape sequence can be used to access char-
acters by their position in the corresponding tfm file; all
characters in the tfm file can be accessed this way.
By design, the DVI format doesn't care about physical dimen-
sions of the output medium. Instead, grodvi emits the
equivalent to TeX's [rs]special{papersize=width,length} on
the first page; dvips (and possibly other DVI drivers) then
sets the page size accordingly. If either the page width or
length is not positive, no papersize special is output.
OPTIONS
-d Do not use tpic specials to implement drawing commands.
Horizontal and vertical lines will be implemented by
rules. Other drawing commands will be ignored.
-Fdir
Prepend directory dir/devname to the search path for
font and device description files; name is the name of
the device, usually dvi.
-l Specify landscape orientation.
-ppapersize
Specify paper dimensions. This overrides the paper-
size, paperlength, and paperwidth commands in the DESC
file; it accepts the same arguments as the papersize
command (see groff_font(5) for details).
-v Print the version number.
-wn Set the default line thickness to n thousandths of an
em. If this option isn't specified, the line thickness
defaults to 0.04 em.
USAGE
There are styles called R, I, B, and BI mounted at font
positions 1 to 4. The fonts are grouped into families T and
H having members in each of these styles:
TR CM Roman (cmr10)
TI CM Text Italic (cmti10)
TB CM Bold Extended Roman (cmbx10)
TBI CM Bold Extended Text Italic (cmbxti10)
Groff Version 1.19.Last change: 1 October 2004 2
User Commands GRODVI(1)
HR CM Sans Serif (cmss10)
HI CM Slanted Sans Serif (cmssi10)
HB CM Sans Serif Bold Extended (cmssbx10)
HBI CM Slanted Sans Serif Bold Extended (cmssbxo10)
There are also the following fonts which are not members of
a family:
CW CM Typewriter Text (cmtt10)
CWI CM Italic Typewriter Text (cmitt10)
Special fonts are MI (cmmi10), S (cmsy10), EX (cmex10), SC
(cmtex10, only for CW), and, perhaps surprisingly, TR, TI,
and CW, due to the different font encodings of text fonts.
For italic fonts, CWI is used instead of CW.
Finally, the symbol fonts of the American Mathematical Soci-
ety are available as special fonts SA (msam10) and SB
(msbm10). These two fonts are not mounted by default.
Using the option -mec (which loads the file ec.tmac) pro-
vides the EC and TC fonts. The design of the EC family is
very similar to that of the CM fonts; additionally, they
give a much better coverage of groff symbols. Note that
ec.tmac must be called before any language-specific files;
it doesn't take care of hcode values.

BUGS
Dvi files produced by grodvi use a different resolution
(57816 units per inch) to those produced by TeX. Incor-
rectly written drivers which assume the resolution used by
TeX, rather than using the resolution specified in the dvi
file will not work with grodvi.
When using the -d option with boxed tables, vertical and
horizontal lines can sometimes protrude by one pixel. This
is a consequence of the way TeX requires that the heights
and widths of rules be rounded.
