CUPS-PDF 2.5.0 (Default branch)
CUPS-PDF is a PDF writer backend for CUPS. It is designed to produce PDF files in a heterogeneous network by providing a PDF printer on the central fileserver. It will convert files printed to its queue in CUPS to PDF and put them in a per-user-based directory structure. It can execute post-processing scripts, e.g. to allow mailing the results to the user. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
A new option to truncate long filenames was introduced. The spool file is now also purged on errors, and failed chmod() on the output file is treated as non-fatal. Updates and additions to the documentation were made, and the additional changelog was removed from the source code. Image

NAME

       cupsfilter - convert a file to another format using cups filters

SYNOPSIS

       cupsfilter  [ -c config-file ] [ -e ] -j job-id[,N] [ -m mime/type ] [ -n copies ] [ -o name=value ] [ -p filename.ppd ] [ -t title ] file-
       name

DESCRIPTION

       cupsfilter is a front-end to the CUPS filter subsystem which allows you to convert a file to a specific format, just as if you had  printed
       the file through CUPS. By default, cupsfilter generates a PDF file.

OPTIONS

       -c config-file
	    Uses the named cupsd.conf configuration file.

       -e
	    Use every filter from the PPD file.

       -j job-id[,N]
	    Converts document N from the specified job. If N is omitted, document 1 is converted.

       -m mime/type
	    Specifies  the  destination  file  type.  The  default file type is application/pdf.  Use printer/foo to convert to the printer format
	    defined by the filters in the PPD file.

       -n copies
	    Specifies the number of copies to generate.

       -o name=value
	    Specifies options to pass to the CUPS filters.

       -p filename.ppd
	    Specifies the PPD file to use.

       -t title
	    Specifies the document title.

KNOWN ISSUES

       cupsfilter currently does not use the filters defined in the PPD file.  This will be addressed in a future CUPS release.
