FAQ
MUSICXML to HPG Conversion
What are MUSICXML files?
MUSICXML is an open file format for sheet music. It describes a score in readable XML text: the notes of every instrument with their pitch and length, the clefs, key and time signatures, bars, dynamics, lyrics, and chord symbols. Its purpose is to move music from one notation program to another without retyping it, so a score written in one editor can be opened, corrected, and printed in another. It was created by Recordare and is now developed by the W3C Music Notation Community Group. Over 270 music notation programs can read or write it.
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.
