PCLReader is a software that can view and easily convert PCL text files to various formats like PDF, TIFF, BMP, and more. It also enables text extraction for data migration and archiving purposes. Users can easily print the converted files to any Windows printer driver.
What's more, ASCII text can be extracted from the PCL printstream, facilitating data migration and archiving. PCLReader has been developed for non-commercial end-users with legacy applications that can only generate PCL output and generic Windows application users with limited needs. However, users with commercial requirements should try PCLWorks Live Evaluation, which is available for download from pclworks.com.
In conclusion, PCLReader is a must-have software for anyone who needs to view, print, or convert PCL files. Its diverse functionality and ease of use make it a valuable tool for non-LaserJet PCL printer users and anyone who needs to work with legacy applications that require PCL4/5/5e LaserJet printers. With PCLReader, you can easily handle PCL files, extract ASCII text, and streamline data migration and archiving.
