HPGL files contain graphical information for a plotter or Hewlett-Packard - HP printer. They are files with content in HP - Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language, shortly HP-GL. This standard was first introduced in 1977.
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the HPGL file after converting to PTIF may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from HPGL to PTIF to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting HPGL to PTIF does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in HPGL format, properly converted to a PTIF file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file HPGL the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of HPGL file to other than PTIF. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your HPGL file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to PTIF on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the HPGL file in its original format (without conversion to PTIF file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
