10.7. Plot in HPGL

    This command allows you to create an HPGL file. In this format you can define:

    • Origin.
    • Pen width (in mm).

    The plotter setup dialog window looks like the following:

    The output file name will be the sheet name plus the extension .plt.

    Sheet size is normally checked. In this case, the sheet size defined in the title block menu will be used and the chosen scale will be 1. If a different sheet size is selected (A4 with A0, or A with E), the scale is automatically adjusted to fill the page.

    10.7.2. Offset adjustments

    Generally speaking:

    • For plotters having their origin point at the lower left corner of the sheet the offset must be set to 0.

    To set an offset:

    • Select sheet size.
    • Click on accept offset.
