NAME

     cupstestdsc - test conformance of postscript files

SYNOPSIS

     cupstestdsc [ -h ] filename.ps [ ...  filenameN.ps ]
     cupstestdsc [ -h ] -

DESCRIPTION

     cupstestdsc tests the conformance of PostScript files to the
     Adobe  PostScript  Language Document Structuring Conventions
     Specification version 3.0. The results of  testing  and  any
     other  output  are  sent  to the standard output. The second
     form of the  command  reads  PostScript  from  the  standard
     input.

LIMITATIONS

     cupstestdsc only validates the DSC comments in a  PostScript
     file  and  does  not attempt to validate the PostScript code
     itself.  Developers must ensure  that  the  PostScript  they
     generate  follows  the rules defined by Adobe. Specifically,
     all pages must be independent of each  other,  code  outside
     page descriptions may not affect the graphics state (current
     font, color, transform matrix,  etc.),  and  device-specific
     commands such as setpagedevice should not be used.
