+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B %manconv%
+converts a manual page from one encoding to another, like
+.BR iconv .
+Unlike
+.BR iconv ,
+it can try multiple possible input encodings in sequence.
+This is useful for manual pages installed in directories without an explicit
+encoding declaration, since they may be in UTF\-8 or in a legacy character
+set.
+.PP
+If an encoding declaration is found on the first line of the manual page,
+that declaration overrides any input encodings specified on
+.BR %manconv% 's
+command line.
+Encoding declarations have the following form:
+.PP
+.RS
+.nf
+.if !'po4a'hide' \&\(aq\e" \-*\- coding: UTF\-8 \-*\-
+.fi
+.RE
+.PP
+or (if manual page preprocessors are also to be declared):
+.PP
+.RS
+.nf
+.if !'po4a'hide' \&\(aq\e" t \-*\- coding: ISO\-8859\-1 \-*\-
