NAME

6       ppdmerge - merge ppd files (deprecated)
7

SYNOPSIS

9       ppdmerge [ -o output-ppd-file ] ppd-file ppd-file [ ...  ppd-file ]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       ppdmerge merges two or more PPD files into a single, multi-language PPD
13       file.  This program is deprecated and will be removed in a  future  re‐
14       lease of CUPS.
15

OPTIONS

17       ppdmerge supports the following options:
18
19       -o output-ppd-file
20              Specifies  the PPD file to create.  If not specified, the merged
21              PPD file is written to the standard output.  If the output  file
22              already exists, it is silently overwritten.
23

NOTES

25       PPD  files  are  deprecated and will no longer be supported in a future
26       feature release of CUPS.  Printers that do not support IPP can be  sup‐
27       ported using applications such as ippeveprinter(1).
28
29       ppdmerge  does  not check whether the merged PPD files are for the same
30       device.  Merging of different device PPDs will yield unpredictable  re‐
31       sults.
