This will generate and translate a temporary patran.hrd file into a device-specific file called hpgl2.plt. This file consists of commands which have been translated into the Hewlett-Packard/2 Graphics Language. The HPGL-2 Graphics Language is a new standard for sending information to HPGL-2 plotters. It uses a new data compacted feature to shorten transmission time, and new high level HPGL-2 commands for maximum efficiency. All new plotters sold by Hewlett‑Packard support the HPGL-2 language.
