PDFMOM(1) General Commands Manual PDFMOM(1)
pdfmom - Produce PDF documents using the mom macro set
pdfmom [-Tps [pdfroff options]] [groff options] files ...
pdfmom [-Tpdf] [groff options] files ...
pdfmom is a wrapper around groff that facilitates the production of
PDF documents from files formatted with the mom macros.
pdfmom prints to stdout, so output must be redirected to a
destination file. The size of the final PDF can be reduced by piping
the output through ps2pdf.
If called with the -Tpdf option (which is the default), pdfmom
processes files using groff's native PDF driver, gropdf. If -Tps is
given, processing is passed over to pdfroff, which uses groff's
PostScript driver. In either case, multiple runs of the source file
are performed in order to satisfy any forward references in the
document.
pdfmom accepts all the same options as groff. If -Tps is given, the
options associated with pdfroff are accepted as well. Please note
that when pdfmom calls pdfroff, the
-mpdfmark -mom --no-toc
options are implied and should not be given on the command line.
Equally, it is not necessary to supply the -mom or -m mom options
when -Tps is absent.
PDF integration with the mom macros is discussed in full in the PDF
manual, Producing PDFs with groff and mom.
pdfmom sometimes issues warnings of the type
...: can't transparently output node at top level
This is more of an annoyance than a bug, and may safely be ignored.
