Check our videoThe PLT file format, also known as HPGL (Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language), is a vector-based format primarily used for controlling pen plotters and printing high-quality graphics. It is supported by CAD software like AutoCAD, CorelDRAW, and specialized tools such as Inkscape with extensions, enabling precise rendering of technical drawings and designs. The format consists of ASCII-based commands for drawing lines, arcs, and text, with advanced features supporting scaling, rotation, and pen control for multi-color plotting.
The GIF is a widely used bitmap image format known for its support of animations and lossless compression, making it ideal for simple graphics and short animations. It is supported by most image viewers, web browsers, and editing tools like Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, and online platforms such as Canva. The format uses a color palette of up to 256 colors, supports transparency, and stores multiple frames in a single file, enabling looping animations with optional interlacing for progressive display.
