CUPS PPD for Leopard



Hi,


In creating a global PPD for Leopard using the CUPS-DDK's PPD compiler (ppdc), is there
a way to translate strings written in English into another English string? Example is the
string "TrueMale" into "True" where "TrueMale" is a  string with gender. There are strings
that have gender to some locales, like in French, but in English, they don't.


I tried creating an en.po and included the translation of  "TrueMale" into "True" but the 
compiler did not recognize the en.po file. The *.po files for other locales were recognized.


If I did not translate the strings with gender, then the global PPD I will generate will have
"TrueMale" string instead of just "True" for English locale. For the other locales, they will have
the correct string.


Changing the strings with gender is the last option because I used the same strings
for Jaguar, Panther, and Tiger. I want to maintain the look and feel of my PPD as much
as possible.


I appreciate any help.


Thanks,
Bowhe
