Have you tested that with PDF? If I magnify it I see a continous line. That all is a "feature" of ditroff. ditroff has been designed with typesetters in mind, viewing on the screen was nearly impossible in early troff days. It may not be a big problem to use maybe \D commands. But is it really required to change this? Carsten
