man to PDF

[Michael(tm) Smith-4]

I notice that the "Manpage Documents" section[1] of the User Guide
says this:

  To print a high quality man page to a postscript printer:

  $ groff -mandoc -Tps asciidoc.1 | lpr

It might be worth mentioning that you can also print like this:

  $ man -l -Tps asciidoc.1 | lpr

And it might really be worth mentioning that you can create a PDF
like this:

  $ man -l -Tps asciidoc.1 | ps2pdf - asciidoc.pdf

ps2pdf is script provided in the Ghostscript distribution.
