In the groff chapter it states: The groff tool is useful because there are no analogous troff or nroff commands shipped with OS/390 UNIX. The OS/390 built-in man command understands only plain text. If you want to port any packages from other UNIX systems to OS/390, you must find a preformatted version of the man pages because most man pages are shipped as troff/nroff source. So you have to either install the ported groff or format the man page on an other system or live without the man page :-).
