FAQ
ZPL to HPG 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 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.
