Neither `nippon' nor `ascii8' are part of the standard groff distribution (which is at version 1.20.1, BTW).

I know that some distributions (like openSuSE) don't install something newer than the eight (!) years old 1.18.1; however, I'm not willing to support that any further.

Please download and install 1.20.1 and reopen this bug report in case there are still problems.

The sets of output devices enumerated by info and man differ.
info but not man: `X75-12', `X100-12'
man but not info: nippon, ascii8
