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  future
       release of CUPS.

OPTIONS

       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

       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).
