+
+<p>The <code class="code">FAM</code> string, a GNU extension, sets the font family for body
+text; the default is &lsquo;<samp class="samp">T</samp>&rsquo;. The <code class="code">PS</code> and <code class="code">VS</code> registers
+set the type size and vertical spacing (distance between text
+baselines), respectively. The font family and type size are ignored on
+terminal devices. Setting these parameters before the first call of a
+heading, paragraphing, or (non-date) document description macro also
+applies them to headers, footers, and (for <code class="code">FAM</code>) footnotes.
+</p>
+<p>Which font families are available depends on the output device; as a
+convention, <code class="code">T</code> selects a serif family (&ldquo;Times&rdquo;), <code class="code">H</code> a
+sans-serif family (&ldquo;Helvetica&rdquo;), and <code class="code">C</code> a monospaced family
+(&ldquo;Courier&rdquo;). The man page for the output driver documents its font
+repertoire. Consult the <cite class="cite">groff<span class="r">(1)</span></cite> man page for lists of
+available output devices and their drivers.
+</p>
+<p>The hyphenation mode (as used by the <code class="code">hy</code> request) is set from the
+<code class="code">HY</code> register. Setting <code class="code">HY</code> to &lsquo;<samp class="samp">0</samp>&rsquo; is equivalent to
+using the <code class="code">nh</code> request. This is a Tenth Edition Research Unix
+extension.
