+<p>This chapter surveys the &ldquo;major&rdquo; macro packages that come with
+<code class="code">groff</code>. One, <samp class="file">ms</samp>, is presented in detail.

+<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-macro-package_002c-full_002dservice"></a>
+<p>Major macro packages are also sometimes described as <em class="dfn">full-service</em>
+due to the breadth of features they provide and because more than one
+cannot be used by the same document; for example
+</p>
+<div class="example">
+<div class="group"><pre class="example-preformatted">groff -m man foo.man -m ms bar.doc
+</pre></div></div>
+
+<p>doesn&rsquo;t work. Option arguments are processed before non-option
+arguments; the above (failing) sample is thus reordered to
+</p>
+<div class="example">
+<div class="group"><pre class="example-preformatted">groff -m man -m ms foo.man bar.doc
+</pre></div></div>
+
+<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-minor-macro-package"></a>
+<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-package_002c-macro_002c-minor"></a>
+<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-macro-package_002c-minor"></a>
+<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-auxiliary-macro-package"></a>
+<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-package_002c-macro_002c-auxiliary"></a>
+<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-macro-package_002c-auxiliary"></a>
+<p>Many auxiliary, or &ldquo;minor&rdquo;, macro packages are also available. They
+may in general be used with any full-service macro package and handle a
+variety of tasks from character encoding selection, to language
+localization, to inlining of raster images. See the
+<cite class="cite">groff_tmac<span class="r">(5)</span></cite> man page for a list. Type &lsquo;<samp class="samp">man
+groff_tmac</samp>&rsquo; at the command line to view it.
