First the bug:

I am using -mm with troff under AIX 3.1.  -mm does not keep track of vertical space properly.
This causes footers to disappear and the text to be printed too far down the page when an
equation is on a page. Has anyone else had this problem? This is not a problem with -me
which leads me to my second question.

Centering Figures with -me:

I would like to center a pic generated picture on the page (horizontally). Using the .(c
command does not work, it doesn't center the picture as a single piece as the manual says
it will.

Thanks for any help.
