PLT Import for Bricscad

PLT Import for Bricscad is a Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language (HPGL) plot PLT file import plug-in for Bricscad powered applications. This plug-in gives Bricscad powered applications the ability to import geometric data from HPGL PLT files. PLT 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. PLT is a command set embedded in the ROM of pen plotters to help reduce the work required by applications programmers to create plotted output. PLT uses two-letter mnemonics as instructions for drawing lines, circles, text, and simple symbols. PLT plot files contain information regarding the movement of the pen of the HP plotter. PLT Import for Bricscad converts these pen movements into corresponding entities and adds them to the active drawing. PLT Import for Bricscad is very easy Once installed, it must be loaded into the Bricscad environment. Follow the simple instructions in the ReadMe document which can be found in the installation folder. Once loaded it adds new commands to Bricscads existing commands and a new submenu called "PLTImport" to the Bricscad menu containing these newly added commands.
