ppdmerge(1)

NAME

   ppdmerge - merge ppd files (deprecated)

SYNOPSIS

   ppdmerge [ -o output-ppd-file ] ppd-file ppd-file [ ...  ppd-file ]

DESCRIPTION

   ppdmerge merges two or more PPD files into a single, multi-language PPD
   file.  This program is deprecated and  will  be  removed  in  a  future
   release of CUPS.

OPTIONS

   ppdmerge supports the following options:

   -o output-ppd-file
          Specifies  the PPD file to create.  If not specified, the merged
          PPD file is written to the standard output.  If the output  file
          already exists, it is silently overwritten.

NOTES

   ppdmerge  does  not check whether the merged PPD files are for the same
   device.  Merging of different  device  PPDs  will  yield  unpredictable
   results.
