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
PPD files are deprecated and will no longer be supported in a future
feature release of CUPS. Printers that do not support IPP can be
supported using applications such as
ippeveprinter(1).
ppdmerge does not check whether the merged PPD files are for the same
device. Merging of different device PPDs will yield unpredictable
results.
