# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

foomatic-filters:
foomatic-filters: foomatic-rip is a universal print filter, which is used by CUPS with
foomatic-filters: the gutenprint and hplip printer drivers.  It translates PostScript
foomatic-filters: (and also other file formats) to the printer's native language,
foomatic-filters: usually using Ghostscript (gs) as the external renderer.  The way
foomatic-filters: this translation is done is described in a PPD file.
