tpscript (which is a ditroff to Postscript converter) was posted to 
comp.sources.unix quite some time ago is quite good and includes the width
tables.  It may also be known as "ditroff2ps".  Ask around in your local
news groups for a copy.  Psroff is a CAT troff to Postscript converter and
I included tpscript's width tables in the package.  That was posted
to comp.sources.unix about last September.  Psroff itself is probably
not what you want (it needs CAT troff not ditroff).  But if you already
have a ditroff to postscript converter and just need the width tables
psroff has 'em.

If all else fails, I can mail you a copy of what you need, but you are 
a long way away...

Part of the Documenter's Workbench (DWB) from AT&T.  ditroff is also
a part of DWB, so presumably you should already have it.  Look for
/usr/lib/tmac/tmac.m...  As far as I am aware, it's not available
separately...
