Follow-up Comment #1, bug #66453 (group groff):

Hi Branden,

This is as far as I have got so far, I'd appreciate comments/improvements to
the effort. I decided the main audience should be users of the main macro
packages, rather than developers of macro packages, since this possibly a
wider audience, and I felt Keith's documentation, though more detailed, a bit
over complicated.

As you can see from the run command at the top of the file, it is using the
pdfms.tmac replacement for Keith's spdf.tmac. The document covers the pdf
features in ms that pdfms adds. It's not ready for primetime yet, but it has
some advantages, primarily in coping better at adding pdf features to old
documents without any changes required. Longer term it might be an idea to
incorporate the code into s.tmac when output is pdf, the same as you did with
man.

You may have to apply the patch in bug #66653 if you want to avoid your author
name becoming just "G." in pdfinfo!

I have also attached gropdf.1 because if you have set up a custom man:/
handler to show all man pages as their pdf versions then the references to
gropdf(1) will actually open the man page at the relevent section, using a
destination of "gropdf(1)#transition" etc..
