mime.convs - mime type conversion file for cups (deprecated)
|
|
<h2 class="title"><a name="DESCRIPTION">Description</a></h2>
|
|
The <b>mime.convs</b> file defines the filters that are available for converting files from one format to another.
|
|
The standard filters support text, PDF, PostScript, and many types of image files.
|
|
<p>Additional filters are specified in files with the extension <i>.convs</i> in the CUPS configuration directory.
|
|
<p>Each line in the <b>mime.convs</b> file is a comment, blank, or filter
|
|
line.
|
|
Comment lines start with the # character.
|
|
Filter lines specify the source and destination MIME types along with a relative cost associated with the filter and the filter to run:
|
|
<pre class="man">
|
|
source/type destination/type cost filter
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
The <i>source/type</i> field specifies the source MIME media type that is consumed by the filter.
|
|
<p>The <i>destination/type</i> field specifies the destination MIME media type that is produced by the filter.
|
|
<p>The <i>cost</i> field specifies the relative cost for running the filter.
|
|
A value of 100 means that the filter uses a large amount of resources while a value of 0 means that the filter uses very few resources.
|
|
<p>The <i>filter</i> field specifies the filter program filename.
|
|
Filenames are relative to the CUPS filter directory.
|
|
