Plot file (HPGL PLT file) conversion to image

Factor that into your calculations.  If your Paper is 1000 pixels high, take 1000- Y instead of just using Y as is.

Thanks a lot for your advices! Now it looks exactly as it is supposed to look like!!! If someone needs it i can post the source code!

The community section of NI'w website has a subsection on example VIs.

Post your code over there!

(And maybe provide a link to your example code in this thread…)

HI Cassaniti,

I am working on old HP spectrum Analyzer (8563E) that need to read HPGL file. Would you tell me how can I download your code?

Thanks,

Johnny

Hi, that's the VI i currently use in order to convert an HPGL file, created by an HP 8722 and transferred via GPIB to my computer, into a PNG file. The code is not exactly flexible (size, colors and so on) but you can easily adapt it.

Let me know if it helps you

Hi Cassaniti,

Thank you for the code. Can you convert it to Labview 11.0 for me? I only have Labview 11.0.

Again, Thanks for your help.
