NAME
       cupstestdsc - test conformance of postscript files (deprecated)


SYNOPSIS
       cupstestdsc [ -h ] filename.ps [ ...  filenameN.ps ]
       cupstestdsc [ -h ] -


DESCRIPTION
       cupstestdsc  tests  the  conformance  of  PostScript  files  to  the  Adobe  PostScript Language Document
       Structuring Conventions Specification version 3.0.  The results of testing and any other output are  sent
       to the standard output.  The second form of the command reads PostScript from the standard input.


NOTES
       This program is deprecated and will be removed in a future release of CUPS.

       cupstestdsc  only  validates  the  DSC comments in a PostScript file and does not attempt to validate the
       PostScript code itself.  Developers must ensure that the  PostScript  they  generate  follows  the  rules
       defined  by  Adobe.   Specifically,  all  pages  must  be  independent  of  each other, code outside page
       descriptions may not affect the graphics state (current font, color, transform matrix, etc.), and device-
       specific commands such as setpagedevice should not be used.
