The doc files contained Epson control sequences to switch font once in
a while. Those are exactly the characters stripped by the mailer.

Fixing the files is not evident, since commands like:

	sed 's#E\(.*\)F#\1#' doc_file

will also match proper text.

I think the best thing to do is to repost the documentation.
