<h2 class="title"><a name="DESCRIPTION">Description</a></h2>
<b>ppdi</b> 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.
<b>This program is deprecated and will be removed in a future release of CUPS.</b>
<h2 class="title"><a name="OPTIONS">Options</a></h2>
<b>ppdi</b> supports the following options:
<dl class="man">
<dt><b>-I </b><i>include-directory</i>
<dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">Specifies an alternate include directory.
Multiple <i>-I</i> options can be supplied to add additional directories.
<dt><b>-o </b><i>source-file</i>
<dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">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 <i>ppdi.drv</i> is used.

<h2 class="title"><a name="NOTES">Notes</a></h2>
