PLT Import for IntelliCAD - Plot PLT file import plug-in for IntelliCAD
PLT Export for IntelliCAD
is a HPGL Plot (.plt) file export plug-in for IntelliCAD®. This
plug-in gives IntelliCAD the ability to export geometric data to HPGL
plot files.
PLT Export for IntelliCAD reads the objects in an IntelliCAD
drawing and converts them into corresponding pen movements in a HPGL
Plot file. PLT Export for IntelliCAD supports the following HP
plotters:
Hewlett-Packard 7475A
Hewlett-Packard 7550A
Hewlett-Packard 7580B
Hewlett-Packard 7585B
Hewlett-Packard 7586B

PLT Export for IntelliCAD is very easy to use. Once installed, it
must be loaded into the IntelliCAD environment. There are simple
instructions for this in the Getting Started file. Once loaded it adds
new commands to IntelliCAD's existing commands
and a new submenu called "PLTExport" to the IntelliCAD menu containing
these newly added commands.
PLT Import for IntelliCAD comes with detailed documentation as
well as a
tutorial
to get you started in the shortest possible time.

The PLT File Format
HPGL is the Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language designed for specifying 2D
graphical information for the HP range of plotters. It was not intended
as an interchange format but some software suppliers use it as such.
HPGL is a command set embedded in the ROM of pen plotters to help 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. HPGL is the primary printer control
language used by Hewlett-Packard plotters. It later became a standard
for almost all plotters.
