the first sentence is broken AFAIKS.

Well, maybe `broken' is too strong;  the meaning is fairly obvious,
but grammatically, I agree that it doesn't really make sense.

maybe it could read, for instance:

"Do not postprocess the output of troff (as is normally done automatically). This will print ..."

I favour this change of wording; it corrects the grammatical sense,
while preserving the originally intended meaning...<snip>

How about:

"Do not automatically postprocess troff output in the usual manner.
This will print..."
