Anyone know of a troff macro package for doing presentations?
I have seen one for groff but I believe it uses special hooks
that the One True Troff doesn't have.

The main thing I need is the ability to add a colour
background image to every page, perhaps this could be
done at the dvi level rather than including an image?
Failing this perhaps a tool to merge an image with a
stream of pages?

This would allow me to create a PDF with a slide per page
and use page(1) or Acrobat to do the presentation depending
on what OS is available.

any ideas anyone?
