            Bug ID: 215971
           Summary: dd(1p) manpage contains empty ASCII to EBDIC tables
           Product: Documentation
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: man-pages
          Assignee: documentation_man-pages@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: ben@bvnf.space
        Regression: No

The POSIX standard includes at the end of the `OPERANDS` section tables
displaying "the octal number character values used for the ascii and ebcdic
conversions (first table) and for the ibm conversion (second table)."
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/dd.html#tagtcjh_=
25


In the above HTML edition of POSIX.1-2018, these tables are images, but are
generated from troff source. In the man-pages-posix converted manpage `dd(1=
p)`,
the tables are empty; only the titles are present:

```
...
.ce 1
\fBTable 4-7: ASCII to EBCDIC Conversion\fR
.bp
.sp
.ce 1
\fBTable 4-8: ASCII to IBM EBCDIC Conversion\fR
.SH STDIN
...
```

Perhaps the tables could be preprocessed with `tbl` and included in the
manpages?
