The eqn definitions as they are in DWB 2.0 are unusable with PostScript postprocessors and printers even generally: a lot of special characters become bad or unrecognisable. Well, that is not the only problem with DWB 2.0 - I wonder when AT&T plans to distribute an up-to-date, production-quality release. (DWB = Documenter's Workbench (tm), includes device-independent Troff, preprocessors and some associated stuff.)
