NAME

       foomatic-compiledb - Compile the Foomatic printer/driver database

SYNOPSIS

       foomatic-compiledb [ -t type ] [ -f ] [ -j n ] [  driver ...  ]

DESCRIPTION

       foomatic-compiledb generates all PPD files or Foomatic combo XML files for all possible printer/driver combos, or only for a selected range
       of drivers.  It generally should not be necessary except for people who want to generate a set of Foomatic data files for distribution. For
       configuring single printers foomatic-ppdfile(1) and especially foomatic-configure(1) will automagically compute just what they need.

   Options
       -t type	 Output file type, either ppd or xml.

       -f	 Force: Write into the destination directory even if it already exists.

       -j n	 n = number of work processes to run

       driver ...
		 only generate data files for these driver(s)

SEE ALSO

       foomatic-ppdfile(1),foomatic-configure(1)

EXIT STATUS

       foomatic-compiledb returns 0 unless something unexpected happens.

AUTHORS

       Manfred	Wassmann <manolo@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de> and Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net> for the foomatic project using output from the
       associated binary.

BUGS

       Existing files are always conserved instead of older files being overwritten. So deleting the destination directory (rm -rf dir) and  call-
       ing foomatic-compiledb without the -f option is recommended.
