Subject: [9fans] troff, ms and header margin
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 323e8ad8-eace-11e9-9e20-41e7f4b1d025

Moin,

I have a small problem with troff and the ms makro.  I need a big
header margin on the first page.  I try:

.nr HM 5i
Hello

and

.nr HM 5i
.PP
Hello

and then run troff -ms demo.ms | lp -dstdout > demo.ps.  I don't get a
5i header margin.  It looks like, that my setting is ignored and troff
only use the default. How do I get a bigger header margin?

Thanks, for any hint.
Matthias
