.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBppdi\fR imports one or more PPD files into a PPD compiler source file.
Multiple languages of the same PPD file are merged into a single printer definition to facilitate accurate changes for all localizations.
\fBThis program is deprecated and will be removed in a future release of CUPS.\fR
.SH OPTIONS
\fBppdi\fR supports the following options:
.TP 5

Multiple \fI-I\fR options can be supplied to add additional directories.
.TP 5
\fB\-o \fIsource-file\fR
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 \fIppdi.drv\fR is used.
.SH NOTES
PPD files are deprecated and will no longer be supported in a future feature release of CUPS.
