A colleague in Scotland has asked me to find out if there is some
low-cost way to produce Postscript for a laser printer from a troff
file.  He is aware of the product sold by Sun, but apparently it
costs 2000 pounds in the UK (about 3200 dollars), and he can't
easily afford that.  I'd appreciate any leads.  Thanks.
