Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
------------------------------------------------

I have been looking over the PostgreSQL manual pages and have noted a
number of formatting problems.  Unfortunately, as the DocBook source
code does not seem to be in the distribution, I have no way of knowing
where these problems originated.  In any case, here is a summary:

createdb.1, createlang.1, createuser.1, dropdb.1, droplang.1, etc.

   In many places where code and output examples are being given, the
   font used is proportional.  If a monospace font were used, the code
   would stand out better and the output would line up correctly.

droplang.1, dropuser.1, etc.

   There is insufficient consistentcy to the NAME entries.  For instance:

     droplang - Remove a programming language from a Postgres database
     dropuser - Drops (removes) a Postgres user

   Why not settle on either "Removes/Drops" or "Remove/Drop"?

pg_restore.1

   In the NAME entry, there is a missing space in "created bypg_dump".

alter_group.l

   In the NAME entry, the comma should be a semi-colon: "group; remove".

fetch.l

   In the NAME entry, there should be a comma: "rows, using".


Please describe a way to repeat the problem.   Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
