A colleague has asked me if I knew of a program that would reformat
(pretty-print) MCP COBOL source code so that it has correct A/B margins
and consistent indentation and alignment.

The old COBOL Migration Tool (OBJECT/CMT/CONTROLLER, etc., documented in
an appendix to the COBOL-85 manual) has some capability in that regard.
Does anyone know of something better?
