jetroff from PC Research, will generate HPPCL from ditroff.  A shareware
version was posted to comp.sources.unix about 2 years back.  It can
use both HP SFP and TeX PK font files.  For information on the non-shareware
version, contact Rick Richardson (uunet!pcrat!rick) for more information.
This is a very good package.  The non-shareware version's price is extremely
reasonable.  I recommend it highly.

Psroff 2.0 will generate HPPCL or Postscript or ditroff from old-troff
(CAT troff) and is free.  It will work with HP SFP and TeX PK font files
too.  It is available by anon ftp via:

It's also in the queue to go out on comp.sources.unix.  I recommend
it highly (after all, I wrote it ;-) too.
