The TeX invocation itself need not change. +The PDF file is made from the POD documentation in the Perl source: + pod2man texfot.pl | groff -man -t -rS11 | ps2pdf - texfot.pdf + +The -t preprocesses with (g)tbl, which pod2man output might need. +The -rS11 switches to 11pt font size. +Supposedly it is possible to add options to either groff or ps2pdf +(aka ghostscript) to force A4 page output, but nothing worked for me. + Originally written in 2014.
