+o groff's Texinfo manual is included in the distribution archive in
+  several formats, including GNU Info, HTML, TeX DVI, PDF, and plain

+  plain text is produced by the build.  Many of the documents in this
+  380+-page document have been heavily revised or rewritten, including
+  tbl(1), groff_font(5), groff(7), and roff(7).  The PDF version uses
+  pdfmark extensions to produce an internal bookmark for every man page
