NAME

     mime.convs - mime type conversion file for cups

DESCRIPTION

     The mime.convs file defines the filters that  are  available
     for  converting  files from one format to another. The stan-
     dard filters support text,  PDF,  PostScript,  HP-GL/2,  and
     many types of image files.

     Additional filters can be added to the  mime.convs  file  or
     (preferably) to other files in the CUPS configuration direc-
     tory.

     Each line in the mime.convs file is  a  comment,  blank,  or
     filter  line.  Comment  lines  start  with  the # character.
     Filter lines specify the source and destination  MIME  types
     along  with  a  relative cost associated with the filter and
     the filter to run:

     super/type super/type cost filter
     application/postscript application/vnd.cups-raster 50 pstoraster
