Yes, you're right Guy, and they are...  this excerpt comes directly out
of one of their technical notes pages of their information packet...

The Text  Processing  Package  consists  of  the
complete System   V    Release   2   Documenters
Workbench (DWB).   The package  is provided with
both the  new  troff  (Device independent troff)
and the old troff (otroff).  Drivers  for the HP
Laser Jet Printer and Apple  LaserWriter will be
available in the second quarter of 1986.
