Foreword

This is version 5.0 of the Linux Standard Base Imaging Specification. This specification is one of a series of volumes under the collective title Linux Standard Base:

Note that the Core and Desktop volumes consist of a generic volume augmented by an architecture-specific volume.


Status of this Document

This is a released specification, version 5.0. Other documents may supersede or augment this specification.

A list of current released Linux Standard Base (LSB) specifications is available at http://refspecs.linuxbase.org.

If you wish to make comments regarding this document in a manner that is tracked by the LSB project, please submit them using our public bug database at http://bugs.linuxbase.org. Please enter your feedback, carefully indicating the title of the section for which you are submitting feedback, and the volume and version of the specification where you found the problem, quoting the incorrect text if appropriate. If you are suggesting a new feature, please indicate what the problem you are trying to solve is. That is more important than the solution, in fact.

If you do not have or wish to create a bug database account then you can also e-mail feedback to (subscribe, archives), and arrangements will be made to transpose the comments to our public bug database.


Introduction

The LSB defines a binary interface for application programs that are compiled and packaged for LSB-conforming implementations on many different hardware architectures. A binary specification must include information specific to the computer processor architecture for which it is intended. To avoid the complexity of conditional descriptions, the specification has instead been divided into generic parts which are augmented by one of several architecture-specific parts, depending on the target processor architecture; the generic part will indicate when reference must be made to the architecture part, and vice versa.

This document should be used in conjunction with the documents it references. This document enumerates the system components it includes, but descriptions of those components may be included entirely or partly in this document, partly in other documents, or entirely in other reference documents. For example, the section that describes system service routines includes a list of the system routines supported in this interface, formal declarations of the data structures they use that are visible to applications, and a pointer to the underlying referenced specification for information about the syntax and semantics of each call. Only those routines not described in standards referenced by this document, or extensions to those standards, are described in the detail. Information referenced in this way is as much a part of this document as is the information explicitly included here.

The specification carries a version number of either the form x.y or x.y.z. This version number carries the following meaning:

  1. The first number (x) is the major version number. Versions sharing the same major version number shall be compatible in a backwards direction; that is, a newer version shall be compatible with an older version. Any deletion of a library results in a new major version number. Interfaces marked as deprecated may be removed from the specification at a major version change.

  2. The second number (y) is the minor version number. Libraries and individual interfaces may be added, but not removed. Interfaces may be marked as deprecated at a minor version change. Other minor changes may be permitted at the discretion of the LSB workgroup.

  3. The third number (z), if present, is the editorial level. Only editorial changes should be included in such versions.

Since this specification is a descriptive Application Binary Interface, and not a source level API specification, it is not possible to make a guarantee of 100% backward compatibility between major releases. However, it is the intent that those parts of the binary interface that are visible in the source level API will remain backward compatible from version to version, except where a feature marked as "Deprecated" in one release may be removed from a future release. Implementors are strongly encouraged to make use of symbol versioning to permit simultaneous support of applications conforming to different releases of this specification.

LSB is a trademark of the Linux Foundation. Developers of applications or implementations interested in using the trademark should see the Linux Foundation Certification Policy for details.


Chapter 1. Scope

1.1. General

The Linux Standard Base (LSB) defines a system interface for compiled applications and a minimal environment for support of installation scripts. Its purpose is to enable a uniform industry standard environment for high-volume applications conforming to the LSB.

These specifications are composed of two basic parts: a common part describing those parts of the interface that remain constant across all implementations of the LSB, and an architecture-specific part describing the parts of the interface that vary by processor architecture. Together, the common part and the relevant architecture-specific part for a single hardware architecture provide a complete interface specification for compiled application programs on systems that share a common hardware architecture.

The LSB contains both a set of Application Program Interfaces (APIs) and Application Binary Interfaces (ABIs). APIs may appear in the source code of portable applications, while the compiled binary of that application may use the larger set of ABIs. A conforming implementation provides all of the ABIs listed here. The compilation system may replace (e.g. by macro definition) certain APIs with calls to one or more of the underlying binary interfaces, and may insert calls to binary interfaces as needed.

The LSB is primarily a binary interface definition. Not all of the source level APIs available to applications may be contained in this specification.


1.2. Module Specific Scope

This is the Imaging module of the Linux Standard Base (LSB). This module provides the fundamental system interfaces, libraries, and runtime environment upon which conforming applications and libraries requiring the LSB Imaging module depend.

Interfaces described in LSB Imaging are mandatory except where explicitly listed otherwise. Interfaces described in the LSB Imaging module supplement those described in the LSB Core module. They do not depend on other LSB modules.


Chapter 2. Normative References

The specifications listed below are referenced in whole or in part by the LSB Imaging specification. Such references may be normative or informative; a reference to specification shall only be considered normative if it is explicitly cited as such. The LSB Imaging specification may make normative references to a portion of these specifications (that is, to define a specific function or group of functions); in such cases, only the explicitly referenced portion of the specification is to be considered normative.

Chapter 4. Terms and Definitions

For the purposes of this document, the terms given in ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, Annex H and the following apply.

archLSB

Some LSB specification documents have both a generic, architecture-neutral part and an architecture-specific part. The latter describes elements whose definitions may be unique to a particular processor architecture. The term archLSB may be used in the generic part to refer to the corresponding section of the architecture-specific part.

Binary Standard, ABI

The total set of interfaces that are available to be used in the compiled binary code of a conforming application, including the run-time details such as calling conventions, binary format, C++ name mangling, etc.

Implementation-defined

Describes a value or behavior that is not defined by this document but is selected by an implementor. The value or behavior may vary among implementations that conform to this document. An application should not rely on the existence of the value or behavior. An application that relies on such a value or behavior cannot be assured to be portable across conforming implementations. The implementor shall document such a value or behavior so that it can be used correctly by an application.

Shell Script

A file that is read by an interpreter (e.g., awk). The first line of the shell script includes a reference to its interpreter binary.

Source Standard, API

The total set of interfaces that are available to be used in the source code of a conforming application. Due to translations, the Binary Standard and the Source Standard may contain some different interfaces.

Undefined

Describes the nature of a value or behavior not defined by this document which results from use of an invalid program construct or invalid data input. The value or behavior may vary among implementations that conform to this document. An application should not rely on the existence or validity of the value or behavior. An application that relies on any particular value or behavior cannot be assured to be portable across conforming implementations.

Unspecified

Describes the nature of a value or behavior not specified by this document which results from use of a valid program construct or valid data input. The value or behavior may vary among implementations that conform to this document. An application should not rely on the existence or validity of the value or behavior. An application that relies on any particular value or behavior cannot be assured to be portable across conforming implementations.

In addition, for the portions of this specification which build on IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, the definitions given in IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Base Definitions, Chapter 3 apply.


Chapter 5. Documentation Conventions

Throughout this document, the following typographic conventions are used:

function() 

the name of a function

command 

the name of a command or utility

CONSTANT 

a constant value

parameter 

a parameter

variable 

a variable

Throughout this specification, several tables of interfaces are presented. Each entry in these tables has the following format:

name 

the name of the interface

(symver) 

An optional symbol version identifier, if required.

[refno] 

A reference number indexing the table of referenced specifications that follows this table.

For example,

forkpty(GLIBC_2.0) [SUSv4]

refers to the interface named forkpty() with symbol version GLIBC_2.0 that is defined in the reference indicated by the tag SUSv4.

Note: For symbols with versions which differ between architectures, the symbol versions are defined in the architecture specific parts of of this module specification only. In the generic part, they will appear without symbol versions.


Chapter 6. PPD Format Extensions

The Postscript Printer Description (PPD) format is used in a text file to describe device capabilities for a printing device. PPD files shall conform to the format described by PPD Specification and PPD Specification Update. In addition, several extensions to the standard attribute list are recognized, as listed below. The "cupsVersion" attribute is required in a compliant PPD, while the other attributes are optional.

cupsColorProfile

This string attribute specifies an sRGB-based color profile consisting of gamma and density controls and a 3x3 CMY color transform matrix.

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*cupsColorProfile Resolution/MediaType: "density gamma m00 m01 m02 m10 m11 m12 m20 m21 m22"

The Resolution and MediaType values may be "-" to act as a wildcard. Otherwise, they must match one of the Resolution or MediaType attributes defined in the PPD file.

The density and gamma values define the gamma and density adjustment function such that (in terms of C math):

f(x) = density * pow(x, gamma)

The m00 through m22 values define a 3x3 transformation matrix for the CMY color values. The density function is applied after the CMY transformation:

| m00 m01 m02 | | m10 m11 m12 | | m20 m21 m22 |

cupsFax

This boolean attribute specifies whether the PPD defines a facsimile device. The default is false.

cupsFilter

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*cupsFilter: "source/type cost program"

This string attribute provides a conversion rule from the given source type to the printer's native format using the filter "program". A source type is specified according to the conventions of the MIME specification, using "type/subtype" nomenclature, and may refer to a standard MIME type or a CUPS-specific MIME type using the prefix "vnd.cups-" in the subtype. If a printer supports the source type directly, the special filter program "-" may be specified. The cost is an arbitrary positive integer, used to calculate the relative impact a print job has on system load.

cupsManualCopies

This boolean attribute notifies the RIP filters that the destination printer does not support copy generation in hardware. The default value is false.

cupsModelNumber

This integer attribute specifies a printer-specific model number. This number can be used by a filter program to adjust the output for a specific model of printer.

cupsVersion

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*cupsVersion: "major.minor"

This required attribute describes which version of the CUPS PPD file extensions was used. Currently it must be the string "1.0" or "1.1". The strings "1.2" and "1.3" represent newer versions of the CUPS PPD API that are not covered in this version of the specification, and are currently not allowed, although they may be found in non-conforming PPDs which use a newer version of the CUPS PPD specification.

FoomaticIDs

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*FoomaticIDs printer driver

The parameters correspond to the IDs in the Foomatic database for the printer and driver, respectively.

FoomaticNoPageAccounting

This boolean attribute tells foomatic-rip whether or not to insert accounting information into the PostScript data stream. By default, foomatic-rip will insert this information.

FoomaticRIPCommandLine

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*FoomaticRIPCommandLine "code"

This attribute defines the command line in the "code" parameter for the renderer that is called by foomatic-rip. The command must take PostScript on standard input and provide the job data stream in the printer's native language on standard output. The command must exit with status 0 if the conversion was successful and exit with another status if an error occurs. The "code" parameter may contain option setting wildcards, as described below under "FoomaticRIPOption".

FoomaticRIPDefault

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*FoomaticRIPDefaultOptionName value

This attribute sets a default for a Foomatic option. The name of the attribute should contain the name of the option appended to "FoomaticRIPDefault", with the desired default value as the only parameter.

This option is only used to provide numeric options in the PPD, which are not supported by the Adobe spec, via enumerated options, and should not be used except for that purpose.

FoomaticRIPOption

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*FoomaticRIPOption name: type style spot [order]

This attribute sets options for the command line specified in the "FoomaticRIPCommandLine" attribute. The "name" parameter specifies the option name, the "type" parameter specifies the option type, the "style" parameter specifies one of "CmdLine", "JCL", "PS", or "Composite", and the "spot" parameter specifies a letter, which is prepended with a "%" and used in the "FoomaticRIPCommandLine" attribute to indicate where the option should go in the command line. The optional "order" parameter indicates an order number for one-choice options.

FoomaticRIPOptionAllowedChars

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*FoomaticRIPOptionAllowedChars name: "code"

This option sets a list of allowed characters in a string option. The "name" parameter identifies the option, while the "code" parameter is a list of allowed characters.

FoomaticRIPOptionAllowedRegExp

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*FoomaticRIPOptionAllowedRegExp name: "code"

This option causes the option named by "name" to be validated by the Perl-style regular expression in "code".

FoomaticRIPOptionMaxLength

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*FoomaticRIPOptionMaxLength name: length

For string or password options, this attribute sets a maximum length which can be returned. The "name" parameter identifies the option, and the "length" parameter is the maximum number of characters allowed.

FoomaticRIPOptionPrototype

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*FoomaticRIPOptionPrototype name: "code"

For string, password, or simulated numeric options, this attribute sets a code prototype to be inserted into the output. This works for options where the FoomaticRIPOption "style" parameter is set to CmdLine, JCL, or PS. The value of the option can be represented with the string "%s" in the "code" parameter.

FoomaticRIPOptionRange

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*FoomaticRIPOptionRange name: min max

This attribute adds a minimux and maximum limit to numeric options (that are simulated by Foomatic via emumerated options). The "name" parameter identifies the option, while the "min" and "max" parameters set the minumum and maximum allowed values, respectively, for the option.

FoomaticRIPOptionSetting

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*FoomaticRIPOptionSetting name=choice: "code"

This attribute adds code to an option, identified by "name", with a FoomaticRIPOption "style" parameter set to Composite. It inserts options for other options that are members of the Composite option "name".

FoomaticRIPPostPipe

The attribute has the following parameter usage:

*FoomaticRIPPostPipe "code"

This attribute defines the command line in the "code" parameter for the job output command used by foomatic-rip in standalone mode. The command should take printer-native data on standard input. The "code" parameter should include the preceding shell pipe symbol ("|").

This section defines global identifiers and their values that are associated with interfaces contained in libcups. These definitions are organized into groups that correspond to system headers. This convention is used as a convenience for the reader, and does not imply the existence of these headers, or their content. Where an interface is defined as requiring a particular system header file all of the data definitions for that system header file presented here shall be in effect.

This section gives data definitions to promote binary application portability, not to repeat source interface definitions available elsewhere. System providers and application developers should use this ABI to supplement - not to replace - source interface definition specifications.

This specification uses the ISO C (1999) C Language as the reference programming language, and data definitions are specified in ISO C format. The C language is used here as a convenient notation. Using a C language description of these data objects does not preclude their use by other programming languages.

This function returns the default printer or class as defined by the LPDEST or PRINTER environment variables. If these environment variables are not set, the server default destination is returned. Applications should use the cupsGetDests() and cupsGetDest() functions to get the user-defined default printer, as this function does not support the lpoptions-defined default printer.

Return Value

Default printer or NULL

cupsGetDest

Name

cupsGetDest -- Get the named destination from the list.

Synopsis

#include <cups/cups.h>

cups_dest_t * cupsGetDest(const char * name, const char * instance, int num_dests, cups_dest_t * dests);

Description

Get the named destination from the list.

Use the cupsGetDests() or cupsGetDests2() functions to get a list of supported destinations for the current user.

Return Value

Destination pointer or NULL

cupsGetDests

Name

cupsGetDests -- Get the list of destinations from the default server.

Synopsis

#include <cups/cups.h>

int cupsGetDests(cups_dest_t ** dests);

Description

Get the list of destinations from the default server.

Starting with CUPS 1.2, the returned list of destinations include the printer-info, printer-is-accepting-jobs, printer-is-shared, printer-make-and-model, printer-state, printer-state-change-time, printer-state-reasons, and printer-type attributes as options.

7.4. Interfaces for libcupsimage

Table 7-4 defines the library name and shared object name for the libcupsimage library

Table 7-4. libcupsimage Definition

Library:libcupsimage
SONAME:libcupsimage.so.2

The behavior of the interfaces in this library is specified by the following specifications:

[LSB] This Specification


7.4.1. CUPS Raster ABI


7.4.1.1. Interfaces for CUPS Raster ABI

An LSB conforming implementation shall provide the generic functions for CUPS Raster ABI specified in Table 7-5, with the full mandatory functionality as described in the referenced underlying specification.

Table 7-5. libcupsimage - CUPS Raster ABI Function Interfaces

cupsRasterClose [LSB]cupsRasterOpen [LSB]cupsRasterReadHeader [LSB]cupsRasterReadPixels [LSB]
cupsRasterWriteHeader [LSB]cupsRasterWritePixels [LSB]  

An LSB conforming implementation shall provide the generic deprecated functions for CUPS Raster ABI specified in Table 7-6, with the full mandatory functionality as described in the referenced underlying specification.

Note: These interfaces are deprecated, and applications should avoid using them. These interfaces may be withdrawn in future releases of this specification.

Table 7-6. libcupsimage - CUPS Raster ABI Deprecated Function Interfaces

cupsRasterReadHeader [LSB]cupsRasterWriteHeader [LSB]  

7.5. Data Definitions for libcupsimage

This section defines global identifiers and their values that are associated with interfaces contained in libcupsimage. These definitions are organized into groups that correspond to system headers. This convention is used as a convenience for the reader, and does not imply the existence of these headers, or their content. Where an interface is defined as requiring a particular system header file all of the data definitions for that system header file presented here shall be in effect.

This section gives data definitions to promote binary application portability, not to repeat source interface definitions available elsewhere. System providers and application developers should use this ABI to supplement - not to replace - source interface definition specifications.

This specification uses the ISO C (1999) C Language as the reference programming language, and data definitions are specified in ISO C format. The C language is used here as a convenient notation. Using a C language description of these data objects does not preclude their use by other programming languages.

Chapter 8. Printing Commands

8.1. Commands and Utilities

An LSB conforming implementation shall provide the commands and utilities as described in Table 8-1, with at least the behavior described as mandatory in the referenced underlying specification, with the following exceptions:

  1. If any operand (except one which follows --) starts with a hyphen, the behavior is unspecified.

    Rationale (Informative): Applications should place options before operands, or use --, as needed. This text is needed because, by default, GNU option parsing differs from POSIX, unless the environment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT is set. For example, ls . -a in GNU ls means to list the current directory, showing all files (that is, "." is an operand and -a is an option). In POSIX, "." and -a are both operands, and the command means to list the current directory, and also the file named -a. Suggesting that applications rely on the setting of the POSIXLY_CORRECT environment variable, or try to set it, seems worse than just asking the applications to invoke commands in ways which work with either the POSIX or GNU behaviors.

foomatic-rip

Name

foomatic-rip -- Universal print filter/RIP wrapper

SYNOPSIS

Standalone Mode

foomatic-rip [-v] [-q] [-d] [ --ppd ppdfile ] [ -J jobtitle ] [ -o option=value [...] ] [ files ]

CUPS Mode

foomatic-rip jobid user jobtitle numcopies options [file]

DESCRIPTION

foomatic-rip is a universal print filter which works with every known free software printer spooler.

This page describes the facilities of foomatic-rip when used as a CUPS filter and when used outside of a print system. While implementations of foomatic-rip may support other print systems, such use is not documented here.

When run as a CUPS filter, foomatic-rip reads the job from the specified file, or from standard input if no file is specified. It renders the file into a printer-specific format, and writes the result to standard output.

When run standalone, foomatic-rip will read the job from the specified files, or from standard input if no files are given. The files are rendered into a printer-specific format, which is then output according to the PPD option "FoomaticRIPPostPipe", documented in the LSB.

Printer capabilities are described to foomatic-rip via PPD files, as described (with extensions used by foomatic-rip) in the LSB. The method foomatic-rip uses to determine the proper PPD file for the printer in question is defined by the implementation of both the spooler and foomatic-rip.

CUPS OPTIONS

Unless otherwise noted, all parameters are required when running foomatic-rip as a CUPS filter.

jobid 

The internal Job ID from CUPS.

username 

The username of the user who submitted the job.

jobtitle 

The job's title, as submitted by the user.

numcopies 

The number of copies of the job requested.

options 

A series of printer options, separated by spaces, each of which take the form name or name=value. The specific list of options supported is dependent on the printer and spooler, and is usually documented in the PPD file for the printer.

An option may be preceded by a page specification, describing the pages to which the option should apply. A page specification consists of one or more items, separated by commas, and separated from the option name by a colon. Valid items include the words "even" and "odd", a single page number, and a page range. Page ranges are described with a starting page, a dash ("-"), and an ending page. If omitted, the starting and ending pages are the first and last page, respectively, but only one of the ends of the range may be omitted.

file 

The full path to the file containing the job. This parameter is optional; if it is not supplied, the job is read from standard input.

SPOOLER-LESS OPTIONS

-v 

Verbose mode. Intended for debugging and testing purposes only.

-q 

Quiet mode - minimal information output.

-d 

Identical to the 'opts' option, but option information is left in text format. The PPD file will need to be specified using the --ppd option.

--ppd ppdfile 

The PPD file ppdfile should be applied for processing this job.

-J jobtitle 

Print the given job title in the header of every page of a plain text job.

-o option=value 

Set an option setting for this job.

EXIT STATUS

foomatic-rip returns 0 unless something unexpected happens.

gs

Name

gs -- GhostScript (PostScript and PDF language interpreter)

SYNOPSIS

gs -h | --help

gs [ options ] ps-file [ [ options ] ps-file2 ] ...

DESCRIPTION

The gs command invokes Ghostscript, an interpreter of Adobe Systems' PostScript(tm) and Portable Document Format (PDF) languages. gs reads the files named by ps-file in sequence and executes them as Ghostscript programs. After doing this, it reads further input from the standard input stream (normally the keyboard), interpreting each line separately. The interpreter exits gracefully when it encounters the "quit" command (either in a file or from the keyboard), at end-of-file, or at an interrupt signal (such as Control-C at the keyboard).

Some of GhostScript's options are set via command-line options; others are set as processing parameters, each of which consists of a name and a value.

OPTIONS

-h --help 

Show GhostScript's help, as well as lists of the supported input formats, supported devices, and the search path for gs components.

-q 

Suppress normal startup messages, and also set the processing parameter QUIET.

-c 

Begin interpreting arguments as PostScript code. All following arguments are sent to the interpreter up to the next argument beginning with "-" followed by a non-digit, or with "@". This code is interpolated with the file list, so files specified before -c are interpreted beforehand, and files after -c are interpreted afterwards.

-f 

Specifies a PostScript file to run as its argument. This is equivalent to the ps-file arguments, but is useful for terminating PostScript code as passed via -c.

-d -D 

Set a processing parameter. The "name=value" pair follows immediately after the option, as in "-Dfoo=bar". The values here must be integers or the values "true" or "false". The equals sign and value may be omitted; this is assumed to set the name to "true".

-s -S 

Set a processing parameter to a string value. The "name=value" pair follows immediately after the option, as in "-Sfoo=bar".

-u 

Unset a processing parameter. The name to be unset follows immediately after the option, as in "-ufoo".

-o 

Write rendered output to the named file, and also inhibit pauses and the interactive shell. This is equivalent to setting the processing parameters BATCH and NOPAUSE to true, and OutputFile to the parameter after -o.

-r 

Set the device resolution. The resolution is specified as two numbers separated with an "x", as in "300x150", corresponding to the X and Y axis resolutions, respectively. If a single number is given without an "x", it is treated as the value for both resolutions.

This is equivalent to setting DEVICEXRESOLUTION and DEVICEYRESOLUTION in systemdict.

-g 

Set the device size, in pixels. The size is specified as two numbers separated with an "x", as in "640x480", corresponding to the width and height, respectively.

This is equivalent to setting DEVICEWIDTH and DEVICEHEIGHT in systemdict.

RECOGNIZED PROCESSING PARAMETERS

Processing parameters may have arbitrary names; no limits are placed on the settings that may be made. However, certain settings have meaning to the gs interpreter, and drivers may use other settings. Below is a list of recognized settings that the gs interpreter must respect.

BATCH 

If set to true, do not enter an interactive shell after processing all command-line files.

DEVICE 

Contains the name of the device used to render the page, as a string.

The list of available devices can be discovered with the -h parameter, as described above. At least the following devices must be present: cups (CUPS Raster), ijs, pxlmono, pxlcolor, and opvp (OpenPrinting Vector).

DEVICEHEIGHT 

Contains the height, in pixels, of the output device.

The effect of this setting when the current driver is a vector driver is undefined.

DEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS 

Sets the initial page height, in units of 1/72 of an inch.

DEVICEWIDTH 

Contains the width, in pixels, of the output device.

The effect of this setting when the current driver is a vector driver is undefined.

DEVICEWIDTHPOINTS 

Sets the initial page width, in units of 1/72 of an inch.

DEVICEXRESOLUTION 

Contains the resolution, in pixels per inch, of the X dimension (horizontal) of the output device.

DEVICEYRESOLUTION 

Contains the resolution, in pixels per inch, of the Y dimension (vertical) of the output device.

NOPAUSE 

If set to true, disable the prompt and pause normally displayed after rendering a page.

OutputFile 

Contains the path to the file to which gs should write its output, as a string. This parameter may be set to '-', in which case gs's output is sent to standard output.

PAPERSIZE 

Contains the string representation of the paper size. The ISO paper sizes a0-a10 (plus a4small), isob0-isob6, and c0-c6 are recognized, as are jisb0-jisb6 (JIS standard sizes) and the US paper sizes 11x17, ledger, legal, letter, lettersmall, and archA-archE.

QUIET 

If set to true, suppress routine information comments on standard output.

SAFER 

If set to true, disable several unsafe PostScript features: the deletefile and renamefile operators, piped commands, reading or writing to general files, and changing of certain system settings.

STRICT 

If set to true, disable as many extensions to the Adobe PostScript specification as possible.

EXIT STATUS

gs returns 0 on successful execution. Any other return value indicates an error.

10.1. Interfaces for libsane

Table 10-1 defines the library name and shared object name for the libsane library

Table 10-1. libsane Definition

Library:libsane
SONAME:libsane.so.1

The behavior of the interfaces in this library is specified by the following specifications:

[SANE] SANE Standard Version 1.04


10.1.1. libsane interfaces


10.1.1.1. Interfaces for libsane interfaces

An LSB conforming implementation shall provide the generic functions for libsane interfaces specified in Table 10-2, with the full mandatory functionality as described in the referenced underlying specification.

10.2. Data Definitions for libsane

This section defines global identifiers and their values that are associated with interfaces contained in libsane. These definitions are organized into groups that correspond to system headers. This convention is used as a convenience for the reader, and does not imply the existence of these headers, or their content. Where an interface is defined as requiring a particular system header file all of the data definitions for that system header file presented here shall be in effect.

This section gives data definitions to promote binary application portability, not to repeat source interface definitions available elsewhere. System providers and application developers should use this ABI to supplement - not to replace - source interface definition specifications.

This specification uses the ISO C (1999) C Language as the reference programming language, and data definitions are specified in ISO C format. The C language is used here as a convenient notation. Using a C language description of these data objects does not preclude their use by other programming languages.

Appendix B. GNU Free Documentation License (Informative)

This specification is published under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.1, March 2000

Copyright (C) 2000 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.


B.1. PREAMBLE

The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other written document "free" in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible for modifications made by others.

This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft license designed for free software.

We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free software, because free software needs free documentation: a free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.


B.2. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS

This License applies to any manual or other work that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed under the terms of this License. The "Document", below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you".

A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with modifications and/or translated into another language.

A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly within that overall subject. (For example, if the Document is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding them.

The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this License.

The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this License.

A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, represented in a format whose specification is available to the general public, whose contents can be viewed and edited directly and straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file format whose markup has been designed to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. A copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".

Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple HTML designed for human modification. Opaque formats include PostScript, PDF, proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and the machine-generated HTML produced by some word processors for output purposes only.

The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself, plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.


B.3. VERBATIM COPYING

You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.

You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and you may publicly display copies.


B.4. COPYING IN QUANTITY

If you publish printed copies of the Document numbering more than 100, and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects.

If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent pages.

If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy a publicly-accessible computer-network location containing a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material, which the general network-using public has access to download anonymously at no charge using public-standard network protocols. If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public.

It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.


B.5. MODIFICATIONS

You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:

  1. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version if the original publisher of that version gives permission.

  2. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the Document (all of its principal authors, if it has less than five).

  3. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the Modified Version, as the publisher.

  4. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.

  5. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications adjacent to the other copyright notices.

  6. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.

  7. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.

  8. Include an unaltered copy of this License.

  9. Preserve the section entitled "History", and its title, and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If there is no section entitled "History" in the Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified Version as stated in the previous sentence.

  10. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise the network locations given in the Document for previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the "History" section. You may omit a network location for a work that was published at least four years before the Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.

  11. In any section entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications", preserve the section's title, and preserve in the section all the substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.

  12. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.

  13. Delete any section entitled "Endorsements". Such a section may not be included in the Modified Version.

  14. Do not retitle any existing section as "Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.

If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.

You may add a section entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text has been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a standard.

You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.

The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.


B.6. COMBINING DOCUMENTS

You may combine the Document with other documents released under this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its license notice.

The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but different contents, make the title of each such section unique by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.

In the combination, you must combine any sections entitled "History" in the various original documents, forming one section entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections entitled "Acknowledgements", and any sections entitled "Dedications". You must delete all sections entitled "Endorsements."


B.7. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS

You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.

You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.


B.8. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS

A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, does not as a whole count as a Modified Version of the Document, provided no compilation copyright is claimed for the compilation. Such a compilation is called an "aggregate", and this License does not apply to the other self-contained works thus compiled with the Document, on account of their being thus compiled, if they are not themselves derivative works of the Document.

If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one quarter of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on covers that surround only the Document within the aggregate. Otherwise they must appear on covers around the whole aggregate.


B.9. TRANSLATION

Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special permission from their copyright holders, but you may include translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a translation of this License provided that you also include the original English version of this License. In case of a disagreement between the translation and the original English version of this License, the original English version will prevail.


B.10. TERMINATION

You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.


B.11. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE

The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.

Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.


B.12. How to use this License for your documents

To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of the License in the document and put the following copyright and license notices just after the title page:

Copyright (c) YEAR YOUR NAME. Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.1 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU Free Documentation License".

If you have no Invariant Sections, write "with no Invariant Sections" instead of saying which ones are invariant. If you have no Front-Cover Texts, write "no Front-Cover Texts" instead of "Front-Cover Texts being LIST"; likewise for Back-Cover Texts.

If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to permit their use in free software.
