| 87030afb | 11 | ppdcfile - cups ppd compiler source file format (deprecated) |
| 94436c5a | 12 | <h2 class="title"><a name="DESCRIPTION">Description</a></h2> |
| 53480915 | 13 | The CUPS PPD compiler reads meta files that contain descriptions of one or more PPD files to be generated by |
| 87030afb | 14 | <b>ppdc</b>(1). |
| 53480915 MS |
15 | This man page provides a quick reference to the supported keywords and should be used in conjunction with the online help for CUPS. |
| 16 | <p>The source file format is plain ASCII text that can be edited using your favorite text editor. Comments are supported using the C (/* ... */) and C++ (// ...) comment mechanisms. | |
| 17 | <p>Printer driver information can be grouped and shared using curly braces ({ ... }); PPD files are written when a close brace or end-of-file is seen and a PCFileName directive has been defined. | |
| 18 | <p>Directives may be placed anywhere on a line and are followed by one or more values. The following is a list of the available directives and the values they accept: | |
