Hi Morten,
I'm using this command in my printing workflow:
GNU groff version 1.21

called subprograms:
GNU grops (groff) version 1.21
GNU troff (groff) version 1.21
This is my workflow makefile:
---snip
template = text
default:
echo $(template)
text:
groff -Tps -k -K utf-8 -dpaper=a4l -P-pa4 -P-l -mm $(template).tr >
$(template).ps
ps2pdf14 $(template).ps
mupdf $(template).pdf
print:
lpr -Prp $(template).ps
---snap
Regards,
echo 'HUE\a'
