Here's a simpler example in which the length of the line produced by the \D'l' request differs twice in nroff and troff: .ll 36n .br The line below should by one symbol long (one "en"): .br .sp 1v N - this is for reference. .br .if t .sp -0.8v \D'l 1n 0' Here's the nroff result: The line below should by one symbol long (one "en"): N - this is for reference. -- The troff result is shown in the following screen- shot: http://a.imageshack.us/img196/981/troff.png Why is an nroff line always longer than a troff line drawn using the same request? Is it connected with character-cell quantization? Anton
