Feature sought:
I need to combine postscript capabilities with troff/groff.

The task is to produce documents with shading, "reverse video",
bubbles/ellipsis (instead of rectangles), etc.

I also must incorporate TIFF images into documents.

This will produce professional-looking documents such as invoices,
letters, envelopes, work-tickets, etc.

Can anyone suggest software that can do this?

I prefer Gnu-like free software.

(I will post results to the net if anyone shows interest).
