Follow-up Comment #3, bug #64155 (project groff):
This is kind of a case of "don't do that, then". ("Doctor, it hurts when I do
this!")
-f fam
Set default font family.
However, Zapf Dingbats is a specific face, not a family. And not a member of
a family.
No matter what happens, you'll get diagnostics, but we probably could improve
the diagnostics you get.
Remember this old chestnut?
troff: EXPERIMENTS/font-errors.groff:23: warning: can't find font
'BOGUSR'
This is pretty close to the actual problem. If "ZD" is the family, then the
formatter expects to find fonts named "ZDR", "ZDI", "ZDB", and "ZDBI".
Possibly a search for the requisite styles could be undertaken upon use of the
`-f` flag or `fam` request, errors thrown for any that are missing, and the
option or request ignored.
The numeric overflow is interesting.
