I use pdfroff a lot.
I also use gpresent a lot.
I process most of my writing using a set of makefiles to automate a task.
The problem is that gpresent _needs_ PostScript input, while pdfroff
removes PostScript and leaves PDF only.
That doesn't help, because it's an exception to the rules in my
makefiles. For gpresent I would have to use regular groff and "home
cooked" PDF markup macros (which I had for quite a time, but pdfroff is
much better).
To cut a long story short, I defined PDFROFF in my makefiles as
pdfroff2. Pdfroff2 is a slightly changed pdfroff script.
I also have defined
PDFROFFOPTS ?= --no-toc-relocation --leave-postscript-only
So I always simply use
${PDFROFF} ${PDFROFFOPTS} ...
The patch against 1.19.2 that creates pdfroff2 is attached below.
Keith is this acceptable to you?
Can it become a part of a regular pdfroff?
