- Description
- The HPGL file format, standing for HP Graphics Language Plotter File, is a specialized file type developed by Hewlett-Packard. It is primarily used for controlling plotter devices, which are printers that draw images with lines instead of dots, making them ideal for engineering and architectural drawings. HPGL files contain a series of two-letter instruction codes followed by parameters that direct the plotter's drawing operations, such as moving to a point, drawing a line, or selecting a pen.
- A JPEG XL file is an image saved in a compressed graphic format currently under development by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It supports wide color gamut and HDR (High Dynamic Range), alpha channels and animation frames while providing visually lossless compression. Images can be converted back and forth between JPEG XL and JPEG without loss of quality. Converting a regular JPEG to JPEG XL reduces the file size by 22%. JPEG XL files can be used to store any type of image content.
