Elan Computer Group, Inc. sells a package called EROFF which is the AT&T
Documenter's WorkBench (DWB), including device independent troff,
nroff, tbl, eqn, pic, grap, macros, etc., plus bug fixes and
enhancements including bitmap graphics inclusion, printer code (including
PostScript) inclusion, and drivers for the HP LaserJet line of printers
and PostScript printers (an Imagen driver is also available). Automatic
HP Soft Font downloading is done for the LaserJets. Downloadable Adobe
PostScript fonts may also be used.

DWB and the printer drivers are also available separately. All of this is
available on dozens of different UNIX machines and under MS-DOS.

There is also a $99 nroff-only package available for MS-DOS.

Our soft copy screen previewer EVIEW is available for Suns under SunView,
many systems under X-Windows V10.R4, and support for X11 is in progress.
All of DWB 2.0 and EROFF's enhancements are supported by EVIEW.
