Often a letter which mm runs over two pages can really fit on one page
and we make that happen by telling mm the page length is > 66 lines.
This works fine for a single letter. However, sometimes we need
multiple copies printed and this approach causes trouble because the
printer starts the next letter partway down the next page.
We have been trying to find some way to force a page eject (^L) from
nroff with zero success. Does anyone know of a way to solve this
problem?
