actually the ps2pdf think works as a charm. the final makefile is
math.pdf : math.me
tbl $< |eqn -Tpdf| groff -Tpdf -k -P-e > math
ps2pdf math
as result, i get
4,0K math.me
176K math
8,0K math.pdf
for the moment, 8ko is enough for me to defer dealing with a poorly
packaged python script so i add pdfsizeopt to the todo list.
thank you for your help.
regards
marc
