#Corel supports PCL?
3 messages in this thread
Hi,
I'm trying to create an insurance form that an applicaiton that I'm writing can
download to a HP LaserJetIIIp as an overlay. Data from the program will be laid
over the form in the printer, then printed. I'm not sure what the best way to
do this is, but I thought CorellDraw might have a feature for creating /
converting the graphics to PCL, the HP printer language. Is there some facility
for this in CorelDraw?

You should be able to take the file you've created and do a FILE / EXPORT
select HPGL as the type of export you wish to perform and hit OK. From there
you give the file a name (and of course take note of where it was stored on the
drive for future usage). Our HPGL export conforms to the HP7475A specs.

Andy,
If straight PCL is all you need, you ought to be able to connect a PCL driver
to FILE: and print to disk, right?
You'd have to do some editing to the file afterwards, though.
