It will prompt you for an account name and password on the A machine unless you have provided these in your .I \&.netrc file. The .I troff .B \-s option is unnecessary and not permitted. .LP .I Nettroff jobs are limited to 15 feet of typesetter output. It is also a good idea to limit the size of the individual files sent, as the network uses a shortest-job-first scheduling algorithm. Jobs of 25000 characters or less are preferable; in no case will the network accept jobs longer than 100000 characters. .SH SEE ALSO vtroff(1), net(1), troff(1) .SH BUGS There is no way to specify special font mounts on the A machine. .br The .B \-l and .B \-p options of the .IR net (1) command may not be specified. .br This command is not supported by the Computer Center. .br If on a Computer Center machine (B, C, D, or E) use the .I troff command (see .IR troff (1)) for more information.
