[Groff] Converting very small file into .dvi |

Hi groffies,
I was trying to convert a very small input file like:
aaaa
bbbb
cccc
dddd
into .dvi.
I used the command: groff -Tdvi foo > foo.dvi
I get an error message saying:
"the file you want open contains non-valid characters".
The output-file like this:
\F7\00\E00\00\00\E1\D8\00\00\E8\00\8B\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00
\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00
\00\00\00\00\00\FF\FF\FF\FF\8D\EFpapersize=8.268in,11.693in\F3\00K\F1`y
address@hidden@\00cmr10\AB\9F\FFC\CCaaaa\90
kbbbb\90
kcccc\90
odddd\8E\8D\EFcolor gray 0\8E\8C\F8\00\00\00\00\E00\00\00\E1\D8\00
\00\E8\00\00%\A4\00 address@hidden@\00cmr10\F9
\00\00\00\9E\DF\DF\DF\DF\DF\DF
When I use the command : groff -Tdvi -mlatin9 foo > foo.dvi
I get no error message. The output is exactly the same.
I know Latex only a little bit.
But this doesn't like an input-file for Latex.
Could somebody explain to me?
Thanks a lot :o)
