In addition, hp2xx output is printable +on the HP Laserjet/Deskjet printer series, and it may be used as a HP-GL +previewer on many platforms. + +It can be used as an ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick delegate to convert +from HPGL format. + +Note: hp2xx is built here without PNG output support because it's not +compatible with modern libpng. If you need to convert HP-GL to PNG, +use GraphicsMagick, built with hp2xx support. |
