DESCRIPTION

13       cupstestdsc  tests  the  conformance  of  PostScript files to the Adobe
14       PostScript Language Document Structuring Conventions Specification ver‐
15       sion  3.0.  The results of testing and any other output are sent to the
16       standard output.  The second form of the command reads PostScript  from
17       the standard input.

NOTES

20       This  program  is deprecated and will be removed in a future release of
21       CUPS.
22
23       cupstestdsc only validates the DSC comments in a  PostScript  file  and
24       does  not  attempt  to validate the PostScript code itself.  Developers
25       must ensure that the PostScript they generate follows the rules defined
26       by  Adobe.   Specifically, all pages must be independent of each other,
27       code outside page descriptions may not affect the graphics state  (cur‐
28       rent font, color, transform matrix, etc.), and device-specific commands
29       such as setpagedevice should not be used.
