Follow-up Comment #15, bug #63827 (group groff):

A little detangling from _mom_(7) will be necessary.


$ git grep 'gropdf-info'
contrib/mom/om.tmac:.              if !dpdf:href.map .tm gropdf-info:href
\\*[PDF_NM2] \\*[PDF_TX]
contrib/mom/om.tmac:.    if '\\*[.T]'ps' .if !dpdf:href.map .tm
gropdf-info:href \\*[ARG_1] \\$*
contrib/pdfmark/pdfmark.tmac:.ie '\\n(.z'' .tm gropdf-info:href
\\*[PDFHREF.NAME] \\$*
contrib/pdfmark/pdfroff.sh:    $AWK '/^gropdf-info:href/ {$1 = ".pdfhref D
-N"; print}' $WRKFILE > $REFFILE


I'm wondering how much we really have to do differently for the "ps" and "pdf"
devices.  Since "pdfmark" commands have their device controls prefixed with
"ps: exec", I wonder if they're syntactically valid PostScript language that
just happens not to be interpreted by most PostScript interpreters.  If that's
correct, it would explain why transformations à la the _ps2pdf_(1) command
are not more lossy than they are.

Deri, does that sound right to you?
