suppressing special output from troff -Tascii



I am trying to transfer some troff files to straight ascii, but I keep
getting intermixed control characters and extra characters in its attempt
to deal with bold, underscore, and other format issues.
Is there a way to get troff to not do these formatting steps? As an
alternative how can I get sed or some other text manipulator to take
the three character sequence <characterX><control-H><characterX> into
simply <characterX>?

Thanks in advance,

Dwarf
