cupstestppd - test conformance of ppd files
cupstestppd [ -I category ] [ -R rootdir ] [ -W category ] [ -q ] [
-r ] [ -v[v] ] filename.ppd[.gz] [ ... filename.ppd[.gz] ]
cupstestppd [ -R rootdir ] [ -W category ] [ -q ] [ -r ] [ -v[v] ] -
cupstestppd tests the conformance of PPD files to the Adobe
PostScript Printer Description file format specification version 4.3.
It can also be used to list the supported options and available fonts
in a PPD file. The results of testing and any other output are sent
to the standard output.
The first form of cupstestppd tests one or more PPD files on the
command-line. The second form tests the PPD file provided on the
standard input.
cupstestppd supports the following options:
-I filename
Ignores all PCFileName warnings.
-I filters
Ignores all filter errors.
-I profiles
Ignores all profile errors.
-R rootdir
Specifies an alternate root directory for the filter, pre-
filter, and other support file checks.
-W constraints
Report all UIConstraint errors as warnings.
-W defaults
Except for size-related options, report all default option
errors as warnings.
-W filters
Report all filter errors as warnings.
-W profiles
Report all profile errors as warnings.
-W sizes
Report all media size errors as warnings.
-W translations
Report all translation errors as warnings.
-W all
Report all of the previous errors as warnings.
-W none
Report all of the previous errors as errors.
-q Specifies that no information should be displayed.
-r Relaxes the PPD conformance requirements so that common
whitespace, control character, and formatting problems are not
treated as hard errors.
-v Specifies that detailed conformance testing results should be
displayed rather than the concise PASS/FAIL/ERROR status.
-vv Specifies that all information in the PPD file should be
displayed in addition to the detailed conformance testing
results.
The -q, -v, and -vv options are mutually exclusive.
cupstestppd returns zero on success and non-zero on error. The error
codes are as follows:
1 Bad command-line arguments or missing PPD filename.
2 Unable to open or read PPD file.
3 The PPD file contains format errors that cannot be skipped.
4 The PPD file does not conform to the Adobe PPD specification.
The following command will test all PPD files under the current
directory and print the names of each file that does not conform:
find . -name \*.ppd \! -exec cupstestppd -q '{}' \; -print
The next command tests all PPD files under the current directory and
print detailed conformance testing results for the files that do not
conform:
find . -name \*.ppd \! -exec cupstestppd -q '{}' \; \
-exec cupstestppd -v '{}' \;
