PCLCodes is a versatile software that translates, debugs, and disassembles HP PCL print streams for learning. It extracts download bitmap fonts and represents raster data as an ASCII character. Ideal for managing complex PCL files.

With PCLCodes, you can extract download bitmap fonts from a PCL file as well as show an ASCII character representation of raster data in a PCL file, making it an ideal tool for learning PCL programming. The software supports PCL3, PCL3GUI, PCL4, PCL5, PCL5e, PCL5c, PCL6(XL)V3 with JetReady V4.2, ensuring that it can handle the most complex and modern print streams.
This software has several functionalities, such as inventorying PCL escape codes, flagging invalid PCL escape codes and generating font metric character width tables from download bitmap fonts in a PCL file. Furthermore, it also extracts HP bitmap fonts from PCL print files for use in other applications and strips HP bitmap fonts from PCL print files to reduce file size and eliminate redundantly downloaded fonts.
PCLCodes runs on all 32-bit and 64-bit Windows platforms and requires no special hardware. It only requires a one-time payment of $29 for a user license with no page volume limitation.
If you're not sure whether PCLCodes is the right fit for you, you can always download and try the PCLCodes Program Demo for evaluation purposes. In conclusion, if you need a reliable and comprehensive tool for PCL programming, PCLCodes is the software for you.
