FAQ
ZPL to DCX 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 DCX files?
DCX files are multi-page images consisting of raster graphics, usually used to create fax files and functioning as a header that introduces a series of ensuing PCX files. DCX is a bitmap format and was initially developed together with the PCX format by Zsoft Corp. and was associated with PC Paintbrush. This graphics editing software was popular in the late 1980s on computers using the MS-DOS operating system, and later on it was adapted for Windows too.
