[environment is ULTRIX 2.0, hp laserjet II, vaxstation 2000, IDE, xroff 
from Image Networks. (and the pic that comes with xroff)]

we're having problems getting xroff to correctly deal with the "pic"
file produced by our IDE (Interactive Development Environments) system.

it ALMOST works, except that scaling is incorrect; only get part of the
picture, and the scaling of boxes and other objects is incorrect
relative to the line segments.  (printing DFE diagrams)

obviously, this is directed at anyone (fat chance- this stuff is
release 0.0001 :-)) who has this particular combination of tools
set up and working.  I've been through the ToolInfo file n times... 

it almost looks like pic is assuming the printer is in landscape mode,
but thats not what the config files say..

thanks for any tips...
