13 ppdpo extracts UI strings from PPDC source files and updates either a
14 GNU gettext or macOS strings format message catalog source file for
15 translation. This program is deprecated and will be removed in a fu‐
16 ture release of CUPS.

19 ppdpo supports the following options:
20
21 -D name[=value]
22 Sets the named variable for use in the source file. It is equiva‐
23 lent to using the #define directive in the source file.
24
25 -I include-directory
26 Specifies an alternate include directory. Multiple -I options can
27 be supplied to add additional directories.
28
29 -o output-file
30 Specifies the output file. The supported extensions are .po or
31 .po.gz for GNU gettext format message catalogs and .strings for
32 macOS strings files.

35 PPD files are deprecated and will no longer be supported in a future
36 feature release of CUPS. Printers that do not support IPP can be sup‐
37 ported using applications such as ippeveprinter(1).
