tdf#123734 Prepend "Custom." for values of custom PPD options
CUPS supports using custom options in PPDs, which go beyond what is specified in the PPD specification, s. doc at at [1]. [2] mentions that the "Custom." prefix is needed when specifying custom page sizes: > When Custom is listed for the PageSize option, you can specify custom > media sizes using one of the following forms: > > lp -o media=Custom.WIDTHxLENGTH filename > lp -o media=Custom.WIDTHxLENGTHin filename > lp -o media=Custom.WIDTHxLENGTHcm filename > lp -o media=Custom.WIDTHxLENGTHmm filename While I did not find any explicit documentation that the same is true for CUPS-specific custom options, this is apparently the case. (The "CustomPageSize" keyword is expclicitly specified in the PPD specification [3], section 5.16 "Custom Page Sizes" and thus not a CUPS-specific custom option.) This can be seen e.g. by the fact that after setting the default value for a PPD option to such a custom value, the corresponding entry in the PPD does get the "Custom." prefix, e.g. *DefaultPassword: Custom.12345 for the sample PPD from tdf#123734. For more details, s.a. the discussion on the similar bug report for Gtk+ at [4], where e.g. comment 0 says: > According to the cups people, the value should have been > "Custom.ThisIsAtest" in this case. Without the "Custom." part, > this is not used by the cups filters. Therefore, add the "Custom." prefix for custom options, but don't show them in the UI.
