.SH Description
.\" ====================================================================
.
.I mmroff
is a simple wrapper for
.IR groff ,
used to expand cross references in
.IR m\%m ;
see
.MR groff_mm 7 .
.
It runs
.I groff
with the
.B \-mm
option twice,
first with
.B \-z
and
.B \-rRef=1
to populate cross-reference and index files with their corresponding
entries,
and then again to produce the document.
.
It also handles the inclusion of PostScript images with the
.B PIC
macro.
.
Documents that do not use these features of
.I "groff mm"
(the
.BR INITI ,
.BR IND ,
.BR INDP ,
.BR INITR ,
.BR SETR ,
.BR GETHN ,
.BR GETPN ,
.BR GETR ,
.BR GETST ,
and
.B PIC
macros)
do not require
.IR \%mmroff .
.
.

.SH Options
