+.SH Description
+.\" ====================================================================
+.
+This GNU
+.I roff
+output driver translates the output of
+.MR \%troff 1
+into a CaPSL and VDM format suitable for Canon LBP-4 and LBP-8 printers.
+.
+Normally,
+.I grolbp
+is invoked by
+.MR groff 1
+when the latter is given the
+.RB \[lq] \-T\~lbp \[rq]
+option.
+.
+(In this installation,
+.B \%ps
+is the default output device.)
+.
+Use
+.IR groff 's
+.B \-P
+option to pass any options shown above to
+.IR grolbp .
+.
+If no
+.I file
+arguments are given,
+or if
+.I file
+is \[lq]\-\[rq],
+.I grolbp
+reads the standard input stream.
+.
+Output is written to the standard output stream.
+.
+.
+.\" ====================================================================
+.SS Typefaces
+.\" ====================================================================
+.
+The driver supports the Dutch,
+Swiss,
+and Swiss-Narrow scalable typefaces,
+each in the regular,
+bold,
+italic,
+and bold-italic styles.
+.
+Additionally,
+the bitmapped,
+monospaced Courier and Elite typefaces are available in regular,
+bold,
+and
+italic styles;
+Courier at 8 and 12 points,
+Elite at 8 and 10 points.
+.
+The following chart summarizes the
+.I groff
+font names used to access them.

+.\" ====================================================================
+.SS "Paper format, orientation, and device description file"
+.\" ====================================================================
+.
+.I grolbp
+supports paper formats
+.RB \[lq] A4 \[rq],
+.RB \[lq] letter \[rq],
+.RB \[lq] legal \[rq],
+and
+.RB \[lq] executive \[rq].
+.
+These are matched case-insensitively.
+.
+The
+.BR \-p ,
+.B \-\-papersize
+option overrides any setting in the device description file
+.IR DESC .
+.
+If neither specifies a paper format,
+A4 is assumed.
+.
+.
+.P
+In its
+.I DESC
+file,
+.I grolbp
+(case-insensitively) recognizes an
+.B orientation
+directive accepting one mandatory argument,
+.B portrait
+or
+.BR landscape .
+.
+The first valid orientation directive encountered controls.
+.\" XXX: This is inconsistent with other description file processing.
+.
+The
+.BR \-l ,
+.BR \-o ,
+and
+.B \-\-orientation
+command-line options
+override any setting in
+.IR DESC .
+.
+If none of the foregoing specify the orientation,
+portrait is assumed.
+.
+.
+.\" ====================================================================
+.SS "Font description files"
+.\" ====================================================================
+.
+In addition to the font description file directives documented in
+.MR groff_font 5 ,
+.I grolbp
+recognizes
+.BR lbpname ,
+which maps the
+.I groff
+font name to the font name used internally by the printer.
+.
+Its syntax is as follows.
+.RS
+.EX
+.RI lbpname\~ printer-font-name
+.EE
+.RE
+.
+.
+.BR lbpname 's
+argument is case-sensitive.
+.
+The printer's font names are encoded as follows.
+.
+.
+.P
+For bitmapped fonts,
+.I printer-font_name
+has the form
+.RS
+.EX
+.RI N\[la] base-font-name \[ra]\[la] font-style \[ra]
+.EE
+.RE
+.I base-font-name
+is the font name as it appears in the printer's font listings without
+the first letter,
+up to
+(but not including)
+the font size.
+.
+.I font-style
+can be one of the letters
+.BR R ,
+.BR I ,
+or
+.BR B ,
+.\" The bold-italic style apparently was not supported for bitmap fonts.
+indicating the roman,
+italic,
+and bold styles,
+respectively.
+.
+For instance,
+if the printer's \[lq]font listing A\[rq]
+shows \[lq]Nelite12I.ISO_USA\[rq],
+the corresponding entry in the
+.I groff
+font description file is
+.RS
+.EX
+lbpname NeliteI
+.EE
+.RE
+.
+You may need to modify
+.I grolbp
+to add support for new bitmapped fonts,
+since the available font names and font sizes of bitmapped fonts
+(as documented above)
+are hard-coded into the program.
+.
+.
+.P
+For scalable fonts,
+.I printer-font-name
+is identical to the font name as it appears in the printer's \[lq]font
+listing A\[rq].
+.
+For instance,
+to select the \[lq]Swiss\[rq] font in bold-italic style,
+which appears in the font listing
+as \%\[lq]Swiss\-BoldOblique\[rq],
+.RS
+.EX
+lbpname Swiss\-BoldOblique
+.EE
+.RE
+is the required directive,
+and this is what we find in the
+.I groff
+font description file
+.I HBI
+for the
+.B lbp
+device.
