HPG to PCT Conversion
What are HPG files?
HPG is a vector image format created in a standard programming language called HPGL (Hewlett-Packard graphics language). Other extensions created in this language include PLT, HP2 and PL2. All are called "plotter files" and are created by drawing programs such as AutoCAD to be printed using a device specialized in vector graphics. An HPG file uses a line series of two-letter codes to render an image and can also include parameters.
What are PCT files?
PCT is an image file format associated with Macintosh QuickDraw, a graphics program developed in the 1980s as part of the Apple Macintosh operating system. The initial version of the format, called PICT 1, could store 8 colors, while the later developed PICT 2 supported 24 and 32-bit color images. In recent years, the format has decreased in popularity, being gradually replaced by more versatile formats.
