Plot2EMF is a Windows utility which converts HP-GL and HP-GL/2 plot files, such as .PLT files created by AutoCAD, to a Windows Enhanced MetaFile format. The resulting file can be easily imported into Windows-based applications.
Plot2EMF is a useful 32-bit utility for Microsoft Windows that can easily convert HP-GL and HP-GL/2 plot files to a Windows Enhanced MetaFile format. This means that once the conversion is complete, the file can be imported or copied to various Windows-based applications. This software is especially useful for those who need to import HP-GL files into different programs.
Initially, Microsoft Office 4.x included an HP-GL import filter, which proved helpful for various tasks. However, for unknown reasons, this filter was absent from the 32-bit Microsoft Office releases. Fortunately, Plot2EMF was developed to fill this need and is still a popular choice to import HP-GL files to various Windows applications.
An Enhanced MetaFile is a collection of structures that stores a picture in a device-independent format. Since the metafile consists of a list of drawing commands, and not the drawing itself, metafiles can be scaled much easier than pictures (bitmaps). Windows MetaFile format (.WMF files) were first introduced with Windows 3.x and later enhanced (.EMF files) for use with Windows 9x and Windows NT 4.x. Overall, Plot2EMF is an easy-to-use software that can accurately convert your HP-GL and HP-GL/2 plot files into an enhanced metafile for use in various Windows-based applications.
