FAQ
ZPL to CGM Conversion
What are ZPL files?
ZPL is a print file written in the Zebra Programming Language, the command language of Zebra thermal printers. A file of this type is plain text that describes a finished printout, such as a shipping label, a price tag, a wristband, or a receipt: where each line of text, barcode, box, and picture sits on the page and what it contains. The printer reads the commands and draws the page itself, so the same file prints without a layout program. ZPL files are produced by ZebraDesigner, by store, warehouse, and point-of-sale systems, and by hand, and they are usually sent to the printer directly instead of being opened in an editor.
What are CGM files?
CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile) is a format that contains vector graphics information (clip art, drawings) associated with graphics design or CAD programs. As opposed to other types of metafiles, such as EMF or WMF, CGM files are not only supported by Windows, but can be used on different platforms too. They are encoded using binary, character-based of clear-text encoding.
