How do you translate the .nroff formatted document to a readable text
document?

One of the advantages of nroff input is that it *is* human readable.  (To me
it seems much easier to read than HTML, but that's not the issue here.)
To generate formatted output (in a variety of possible formats) the freely-
available groff program works well.

Can emacs do that for you?

I don't know.  I prefer vi.
