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.
PCX, standing for Paintbrush Bitmap Image, is a raster image format developed by ZSoft Corporation for their PC Paintbrush graphics program. Initially released in the 1980s, PCX was one of the first widely used bitmap image formats on IBM PC compatible computers. The format supports 1-bit monochrome, 4-bit palette, 8-bit palette, and 24-bit true color images, allowing for a wide range of colors and shades.
