In order to typeset 12inch wide output, instead of 7.5, make the following change to /usr/src/usr.bin/troff/t10.c: At line 281, change: if(((j = (esct + i*(1-2*escm))) > (46*72+18-T_IESC)) || to: /* * the magic number in the next line is * # of inches max line length * #picas/inch *#bu's/pica */ if(((j = (esct + i*(1-2*escm))) > (12*6*72+18-T_IESC)) || This will widen your output from 7.66 inches (46/6) to 12 inches.
