658 <p>CUPS supports three types of color profiles. The first type is based on sRGB and is used by the standard CUPS raster filters and GPL Ghostscript. The second type is based on ICC profiles and is used by the Quartz-based filters on macOS. The final type is based on well-known colorspaces such as sRGB and Adobe RGB.
</p>
660 <blockquote><b>Note:
</b>
662 <p>At this time, none of the CUPS raster filters support ICC profiles. This will be addressed as time and resources permit.

><a name='CONSTRAINTS'
>Constraints
</a></h2>
827 <p>Constraints are option choices that are not allowed by the driver or device, for example printing
2-sided transparencies. All versions of CUPS support constraints defined by the legacy Adobe
<tt>UIConstraints
</tt> and
<tt>NonUIConstraints
</tt> keywords which support conflicts between any two option choices, for example:
</p>
829 <pre class='command'
>
830 *% Do not allow
2-sided printing on transparency media
831 *UIConstraints:
"*Duplex *MediaType Transparency"
832 *UIConstraints:
"*MediaType Transparency *Duplex"
835 <p>While nearly all constraints can be expressed using these keywords, there are valid scenarios requiring constraints between more than two option choices. In addition, resolution of constraints is problematic since users and software have to guess how a particular constraint is best resolved.
</p>
837 <p>CUPS
1.4 and higher define two new keywords for constraints,
<tt>cupsUIConstraints
</tt> and
<tt>cupsUIResolver
</tt>. Each
<tt>cupsUIConstraints
</tt> keyword points to a
<tt>cupsUIResolver
</tt> keyword which specifies alternate options that resolve the conflict condition. The same
<tt>cupsUIResolver
</tt> can be used by multiple
<tt>cupsUIConstraints
</tt>.
</p>
839 <blockquote><b>Note:
</b>
841 <p>When developing PPD files that contain constraints, it is very important to use the
<a href=

>Globalized PPD Support
</a></h2>
901 <p>CUPS
1.2 and higher adds support for PPD files containing multiple languages by following the following additional rules:
</p>
905 <li>The
<tt>LanguageVersion
</tt> MUST be
<tt>English
</tt></li>
907 <li>The
<tt>LanguageEncoding
</tt> MUST be
<tt>ISOLatin1
</tt></li>
909 <li>The
<tt>cupsLanguages
</tt> keyword MUST be provided and list each of the supported locales in the PPD file
</li>
911 <li>Main and option keywords MUST NOT exceed
34 (instead of
40) characters to allow room for the locale prefixes in translation keywords
</li>
913 <li>The main keyword
"Translation" MUST NOT be used
</li>
915 <li>Translation strings included with the main and option keywords MUST NOT contain characters outside the ASCII subset of ISOLatin1 and UTF-
8; developers wishing to use characters outside ASCII MUST provide a separate set of English localization keywords for the affected keywords.
</li>
917 <li>Localizations are specified using a locale prefix of the form
"ll" or
"ll_CC." where
"ll" is the
2-letter ISO language code and
"CC" is the
2-letter ISO country code
<ul>
918 <li>A generic language translation (
"ll") SHOULD be provided with country-specific differences (
"ll_CC") provided only as needed
</li>
919 <li>For historical reasons, the
"zh" and
"zh_CN" locales map to Simplified Chinese while the
"zh_TW" locale maps to Traditional Chinese
</li>
922 <li>Locale-specific translation strings MUST be encoded using UTF-
8.
</li>
924 <li>Main keywords MUST be localized using one of the following forms:
925 <p><tt>*ll.Translation MainKeyword/translation text:
""</tt><br />
926 <tt>*ll_CC.Translation MainKeyword/translation text:

928 <li>Option keywords MUST be localized using one of the following forms:
929 <p><tt>*ll.MainKeyword OptionKeyword/translation text:
""</tt><br>
930 <tt>*ll_CC.MainKeyword OptionKeyword/translation text:
""</tt></p></li>
932 <li>Localization keywords MAY appear anywhere after the first line of the PPD file
</li>
936 <blockquote><b>Note:
</b>
938 <p>We use a
<tt>LanguageEncoding
</tt> value of
<tt>ISOLatin1
</tt> and limit the allowed base translation strings to ASCII to avoid character coding issues that would otherwise occur. In addition, requiring the base translation strings to be in English allows for easier fallback translation when no localization is provided in the PPD file for a given locale.

981 <p>CUPS supports custom options using an extension of the

</tt> syntax:
</p>
983 <pre class='command'

984 *CustomFoo True:

1: order type minimum maximum
986 *ParamCustomFoo Name2/Text

988 *ParamCustomFoo NameN/Text N: order type minimum maximum
991 <p>When the base option is part of the
<tt>JCLSetup
</tt> section, the
"command" string contains JCL commands with
"\order" placeholders for each numbered parameter. The CUPS API handles any necessary value quoting for HP-PJL commands. For example, if the JCL command string is
"@PJL SET PASSCODE=\1" and the first
992 option value is
"1234" then CUPS will output the string
"@PJL SET PASSCODE=1234".
</p>
994 <p>For non-
<tt>JCLSetup
</tt> options, the
"order" value is a number from
1 to N and specifies the order of values as they are placed on the stack before the command. For example, if the PostScript command string is
"<</cupsReal1 2 1 roll>>setpagedevice" and the option value is
"2.0" then CUPS will output the string
"2.0 <</cupsReal1 2 1 roll>>setpagedevice".
</p>
996 <p>The
"type" is one of the following keywords:
</p>
1000 <li><tt>curve

>Writing PostScript Option Commands for Raster Drivers
</a></h2>
1067 <p>PPD files are used for both PostScript and non-PostScript printers. For CUPS raster drivers, you use a subset of the PostScript language to set page device keywords such as page size, resolution, and so forth. For example, the following code sets the page size to A4 size:
</p>
1069 <pre class='command'
>
1070 *PageSize A4:
"<</PageSize[595 842]>>setpagedevice"
1073 <p>Custom options typically use other operators to organize the values into a key/value dictionary for
<tt>setpagedevice
</tt>. For example, our previous
<tt>CustomWatermarkText
</tt> option code uses the
<tt>roll
</tt> operator to move the custom string value into the dictionary for
<tt>setpagedevice
</tt>:
</p>
1075 <pre class='command'
>
1076 *CustomWatermarkText True:
"<</cupsString1 3 -1 roll>>setpagedevice"
1079 <p>For a custom string value of
"My Watermark", CUPS will produce the following PostScript code for the option:
</p>
1081 <pre class='command'
>
1083 <</cupsString1
3 -
1 roll
>>setpagedevice
1086 <p>The code moves the string value (
"My Watermark") from the bottom of the stack to the top, creating a dictionary that looks like:
</p>
1088 <pre class='command'
>
1089 <</cupsString1(My Watermark)
>>setpagedevice
1092 <p>The resulting dictionary sets the page device attributes that are sent to your raster driver in the page header.
</p>
1095 <h3 class=
"title">Custom Page Size Code
</h3>
1097 <p>There are many possible implementations of the
<tt>CustomPageSize
</tt> code. For CUPS raster drivers, the following code is recommended:
</p>
1099 <pre class='command'
>
1100 *ParamCustomPageSize Width:
1 points
<i>min-width max-width
</i>
1101 *ParamCustomPageSize Height:

1104 *ParamCustomPageSize Orientation:
5 int
0 0
1105 *CustomPageSize True:
"pop pop pop <</PageSize[5 -2 roll]/ImagingBBox null>>setpagedevice"
1109 <h3 class=
"title">Supported PostScript Operators
</h3>
1111 <p>CUPS supports the following PostScript operators in addition to the usual PostScript number, string (literal and hex-encoded), boolean, null, and name values:
</p>
1115 <li><tt><<</tt> - Start a dictionary.
</li>
1117 <li><tt>>></tt> - End a dictionary.
</li>
1119 <li><tt>[
</tt> - Start an array.
</li>
1121 <li><tt>]
</tt> - End an array.
</li>
1123 <li><tt>copy
</tt> - Copy the top N objects on the stack.
</li>
1125 <li><tt>dup
</tt> - Copy the top object on the stack.
</li>
1127 <li><tt>index
</tt> - Copy the Nth from the top object on the stack.
</li>
1129 <li><tt>pop
</tt> - Pop the top object on the stack.
</li>
1131 <li><tt>roll
</tt> - Shift the top N objects on the stack.
</li>
1133 <li><tt>setpagedevice
</tt> - Set the page header values according to the key/value dictionary on the stack.
</li>
1137 <blockquote><b>Note:
</b>
1139 <p><em>Never
</em> use the unsupported
<tt>dict
</tt> or
<tt>put
</tt>
1140 operators in your option code. These operators are typically used in
1141 option code dating back to Level
1 PostScript printers, which did not
1142 support the simpler
<tt><<</tt> or
<tt>>></tt> operators.
1143 If you have old option code using
<tt>dict
</tt> or
<tt>put
</tt>, you can
1144 rewrite it very easily to use the newer
<tt><<</tt> and
1145 <tt>>></tt> operators instead. For example, the following code
1146 to set the page size:
</p>
