NAME

grolj4 - groff driver for HP Laserjet 4 family

SYNOPSIS

grolj4 [ -lv ] [ -d ] [ -c ] [ -p ] [ -w ] [ -F ] [ files... ]

DESCRIPTION

grolj4 is a driver for groff that produces output in PCL5 format suitable for an HP Laserjet 4 printer. There is an additional drawing command available:

\D'R dh dv'

Draw a rule (solid black rectangle), with one corner at the current position, and the diagonally opposite corner at the current position +(dh,dv). Afterwards the current position will be at the opposite corner. This generates a PCL fill rectangle command, and so will work on printers that do not support HPGL/2 unlike the other \D commands.
