Hi Branden,
I've just built groff v1.23.0-rc3 on my old Fedora 33 box,
and there were no errors that I could see. I did a ‘make

Hi Blake,
You can convert the .otf or .ttf fonts, using the methods that Branden and

Peter will probably have a more elegant (and likely more correct)
solution, but this may work for you:
Replace the “\&.” with “\h'-\w' 'u'.”. This worked for me in the one

For the Norwegian characters, you'll need to use constructions like "\[o/]"
and "\[ae]". Forgive me, I'm away from my computer right now, and I can't

The URW++ fonts (i.e., U-*) should be installed when you build Groff. One

not guaranteed. Worse, URW++ changed the names of their files a while

Hi all,
You may remember my earlier posting regarding troubles I was having with
installing fonts for Groff. For the most part, things have worked out well
enough. However, there is still one problem that's hanging on, and that's

Hi folks,
I just updated my computer to Fedora 29, and downloaded the latest version
of groff (1.22.4). When I ran configure, it couldn't find the URW++
fonts. Turned out I hadn't installed them. D'oh! Installed them, but
configure still couldn't find them. I added the --with-urw-fonts-dir
