NAME
ppdpo - ppd message catalog generator (deprecated)
SYNOPSIS
ppdpo [ -D name[=value] ] [ -I include-directory ] [ -o output-file ]
source-file
DESCRIPTION
ppdpo extracts UI strings from PPDC source files and updates either a
GNU gettext or macOS strings format message catalog source file for
translation. This program is deprecated and will be removed in a fu-
ture release of CUPS.
OPTIONS
ppdpo supports the following options:
-D name[=value]
Sets the named variable for use in the source file. It is equiva-
lent 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.
-o output-file
Specifies the output file. The supported extensions are .po or
.po.gz for GNU gettext format message catalogs and .strings for
macOS strings files.
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 sup-
ported using applications such as ippeveprinter(1).
