groff_font - GNU roff device and font description files
Описание (Description)
The groff font and output device description formats are slight
extensions of those used by AT&T device-independent troff. In
distinction to the AT&T implementation, groff lacks a binary
format; all files are text files. (Plan 9 troff has also
abandoned the binary format.) The device and font description
files for a device name are stored in a directory called devname.
The device description file is called DESC, and, for each font f
supported by the device, a font file called 'f', where f is
usually an abbreviation of a font's name and/or style. For
example, the ps (PostScript) device has groff font description
files for Times roman (TR) and Zapf Chancery Medium italic
(ZCMI), among many others, while the utf8 device (for terminal
emulators) has only font descriptions for the roman, italic,
bold, and bold-italic styles (R, I, B, and BI, respectively).
