I know next to nothing about ditroff. With that off my chest: ;-)

I have Ken Yap's ditdvi filter installed and was running Dave Taylor's
elm documentation through it, when I get the message:

Font I, glyph 36 not found.

How do I fix this?

I also notice on the output that the spacing in the boldface headers
is somewhat questionable. Looks sort of like:

		E lm  F orm s M  ode G uide

Otherwise the Yap filter looks pretty nice, assuming you're a site
without the intention to buy reasonable laserjet filters for ditroff
when you already have dvi filters for the things.
