If HTML is desired, there are a couple of options. I haven't used it, but troff2page sounds nice. http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/dorai/troff2page/index.html#node_toc_start GNU troff also supports HTML output, but I haven't had great luck with it.
For rendering man pages to plain text, HTML, or PDF, please consider the BSD-licenced mandoc program (which, confusingly, is part of a package called "mdocml"). See <http://mdocml.bsd.lv>. The HTML and PDF output from mandoc is superior to the corresponding output from groff, but mandoc is more fussy about errors in the input.
