HPGL is the format of a printer instruction file, which is short for HP Graphics Language Plotter File. The HPGL file is a vector image file, which could contain a few lines of setup commands followed by a list of printing commands that could tell the plotter what and where to draw on the page. HPGL is based on the plotter language developed by Hewlett-Packard that is used for sending information to plotter printers, which could draw images using lines instead of dots like an ordinary laser or inkjet printer.
