NAME
     ppdi - import ppd files (deprecated)

SYNOPSIS
     ppdi [ -I include-directory ] [ -o source-file ] ppd-file [ ...  ppd-file ]

DESCRIPTION
     ppdi imports one or more PPD files into a PPD compiler source file.  Multi-
     ple languages of the same PPD file are merged into a single printer defini-
     tion to facilitate accurate changes for all localizations.  This program is
     deprecated and will be removed in a future release of CUPS.

OPTIONS
     ppdi supports the following options:

     -I include-directory
	  Specifies  an alternate include directory.  Multiple -I options can be
	  supplied to add additional directories.

     -o source-file
	  Specifies the PPD source file to update.  If the source file does  not
	  exist,  a  new source file is created.  Otherwise the existing file is
	  merged with the new PPD file(s) on the  command-line.   If  no  source
	  file is specified, the filename ppdi.drv is used.

NOTES
     PPD  files  are deprecated and will no longer be supported in a future fea-
     ture release of CUPS.  Printers that do not support IPP  can  be  supported
     using applications such as ippeveprinter(1).
