ppdi(1)

NAME

   ppdi - import ppd files (deprecated)

SYNOPSIS

   ppdi  [  -I include-directory ] [ -o source-file ] ppd-file [ ...  ppd-
   file ]

DESCRIPTION

   ppdi imports one or more PPD files into a  PPD  compiler  source  file.
   Multiple  languages  of  the  same  PPD  file  are merged into a single
   printer   definition   to   facilitate   accurate   changes   for   all
   localizations.   This  program  is  deprecated and will be removed in a
   future release of CUPS.

OPTIONS

   ppdi supports the following options:

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

   -o source-file
        Specifies  the PPD source file to update.  If the source file does
        not exist, a new source file is created.  Otherwise  the  existing
        file  is  merged with the new PPD file(s) on the command-line.  If
        no source file is specified, the filename ppdi.drv is used.
