Re: Dynamic Paperlength for PS or PDF device

[Wim Stockman]

Hi,
Thanks for all the suggestions.
But I think my question is misunderstood. I needed to let grops know how
long my groff page is....
Not knowing in advance what the length of my groff page would be. ...
So that's why i use the
".tm \\n[nl]"  macro from groff to output the exact length of the groff
page and then rerun groff with the correct length for grops :-)

Have a great World Cup.
Sadly my country Belgium was a complete disaster :-)
