                     14: .SH DESCRIPTION
                     15: .I Nettroff
                     16: runs

                     18: and sends the output over the network to the machine at the Computer Center
                     19: with the phototypesetter (currently the ``A'' machine.)
                     20: It will prompt you for an account name and password on the A machine unless
                     21: you have provided these in your
                     22: .I \&.netrc

                     29: .I Nettroff
                     30: jobs are limited to 15 feet of typesetter output.
                     31: It is also a good idea to limit the size of the individual files sent,
                     32: as the network uses a shortest-job-first scheduling algorithm.
                     33: Jobs of 25000 characters or less are preferable; in no case will the
                     34: network accept jobs longer than 100000 characters.

                     38: There is no way to specify special font mounts on the A machine.
