DESCRIPTION

ppdc compiles PPDC source files into one or more PPD files. This program is deprecated
and will be removed in a future release of CUPS.

OPTIONS

ppdc supports the following options:

-D name[=value]
Sets the named variable for use in the source file. It is equivalent to using the
#define directive in the source file.

-I include-directory
Specifies an alternate include directory. Multiple -I options can be supplied to add
additional directories.

-c message-catalog
Specifies a single message catalog file in GNU gettext (filename.po) or Apple strings
(filename.strings) format to be used for localization.

-d output-directory
Specifies the output directory for PPD files. The default output directory is "ppd".

-l language(s)
Specifies one or more languages to use when localizing the PPD file(s). The default
language is "en" (English). Separate multiple languages with commas, for example
"de_DE,en_UK,es_ES,es_MX,es_US,fr_CA,fr_FR,it_IT" will create PPD files with German,
UK English, Spanish (Spain, Mexico, and US), French (France and Canada), and Italian
languages in each file.

-m Specifies that the output filename should be based on the ModelName value instead of
FileName or PCFilenName.

-t Specifies that PPD files should be tested instead of generated.

-v Specifies verbose output, basically a running status of which files are being loaded
or written. -z Generates compressed PPD files (filename.ppd.gz). The default is to
generate uncompressed PPD files.

--cr

--crlf

--lf Specifies the line ending to use - carriage return, carriage return and line feed, or
line feed alone. The default is to use the line feed character alone.
