NAME top

       ppdpo - ppd message catalog generator (deprecated)

SYNOPSIS top

       ppdpo [ -D name[=value] ] [ -I include-directory ] [ -o output-file ]
       source-file

DESCRIPTION top

       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
       future release of CUPS.

OPTIONS top

       ppdpo supports the following options:

       -D name[=value]
            Sets the named variable for use in the source file.  It is
            equivalent 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 top

       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).
