If it produces DEC/ANSI escape codes I have a converter that will turn
it into HTML?

Not any version I have ever seen;
they all produce plain lineprinter output (with overprinting for things like underlining).
You can of course take the formatted output and run it through a simple postprocessor
like pstext.
Some versions of troff can produce PostScript (current Linux or Darwin ones, for example)
so if you can do runoff->troff then you have a direct path to PostScript. But you?re
right, if someone would offer to run an actual RUNOFF on the sources, that would be a good
approach. I could do it on a RSTS system, which might work provided the source doesn?t
use VMS-specific Runoff features.
