Output differences between roff and rst ======================================= Even if the output of roff and reStructuredText (rst) should be similar, there are some differences. The roff output provides more features than the rst output: * The reStructuredText output does not support the table and cell formatting options of scdoc. * The information from the scdoc preamble is not included in the reStructuredText output (aside from the name and section). * man uses usually underline for emphasis, while reStructuredText uses italic.
