Any other HPGL to G-code converter ?
« on: February 13, 2007, 08:43:36 AM »
Hello,

As an alternative to LAZYCAM which are the software names that can properly convert HPGL files (or DXF but first HPGL) into G-CODE? Thank you.  ;)

Hello Brian,

Hello,

Here is my problem : the size of my drawing is not the size of the result in mach3.

I make some drawings in HPGL. They are well imported in Lazycam.
Suppose I import a circle which dia. is 43mm.
Then, Layer/object properties,
I have the hereunder numbers :

- extents        X   min : 0.0000   max : 1702.0000
                    Y   min : 0.0000   max : 1702.0000

- selectchain    X extents > same as above

- stock size      stock depth    : 0.0000
                     stock X length : 3651.0000
                     stock Y length : 3091.0000

Could you please advise what are the hereabove X and Y numbers for these 3 sections?


Thank you very much in advance.
