HPGL Import for Surfcam is a plug-in for Surfcam. This plug-in gives Surfcam the ability to importee graphical data from HPGL Plot (PLT) files.
HPGL is the Hewlett Packard Graphics Language designed for specifying 2D graphical information for the HP rank of plotters. It was not intended as an transpose format but some software suppliers practice it as such. HPGL is a overtop set embedded in the ROM of pen plotters to aid reduce the work required by applications programmers to create plotted output. HPGL uses two-letter mnemonics as instructions for drawing lines, circles, text, and simple symbols.
