NAME
foomatic-ppdload - <put a short description here>
SYNOPSIS
foomatic-ppdload
[filename.ppd printer-id]...
DESCRIPTION
foomatic-ppdload
takes a ppd filename and a printer ID as arguments. It
parses a PPD file and writes option data into the foomatic database
for use with the foomatic "ppd" driver and that printer.
Right now, it will handle Boolean and PickOne options that go in the
Prolog, DocumentSetup, or PageSetup spots. Also, PPD interoption
constraints (not to be confused with foomatic option to printer and
driver mapping constraints) are not supported by foomatic. And of
course, the interesting color and font information from the PPD has
no place in the current foomatic schema. All this will change over
time.
EXIT STATUS
foomatic-ppdload
returns ...
