This "HP-GL Reference Guide" describes the HP-GL instruction.
HP-GL is an abbreviation for Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language and is an instruction set for plotter control developed by HP company. HP-GL has three specifications, HP-GL, HP-GL/2, and HP RTL, as shown below.
HP-GL : Vector data for pen plotter control
HP-GL/2: Vector data for raster plotter control
HP RTL : Raster image data for raster plotter control
Here, we will explain the HP-GL that was first published among them.
The HP-GL sample has carried the result displayed by HPGL viewer

1. Grammar of HP-GL Command
|
The command of HP-GL consists of the command section of the alphabet
of two characters, the parameter section, and the terminator section, as
shown below. To use plural parameters for the next of the command section,
it is necessary to divide each parameter with a separator.
Example :PA5000,1000;
(command) PA
(parameter) 5000
(separator) ,
(parameter)
1000
(terminator) ;
The default separator is comma and the default
terminator is semicolon. In addition, the terminator of LB and BL command is
end-off text code ETX. That is, it is 3 in an ASCII code decimal
number.
Space, C/R, and L/F code are ignored except the label under LB and
BL command.
The parameter which came out by the last command is remembered,
and forward parameter will be used if parameter is omitted.

2. Coordinate System
|
Coordinate systems is 2-dimensional XY rectangular coordinate.
-Plotter coordinate system
XY unit of
minimum plotter movement is 0.025mm. This is made into one unit and indicated
integrally. The possible range of drawing changes with plotter kinds.
-User coordinate system
Coordinates can
be specified by user system of coordinates by setting up beforehand scale and
origin which are converted into plotter system of coordinates from user system
of coordinates combining IP command and SC command. If this setup is not carried
out, plotter system of coordinates will be used. In addition to integer, X and Y
of user system of coordinates can use real number.

3. Setup of Plotter
|
-IN(Initialize)
Plotter is changed into
initial state.
IN;
-DF(Defalt)
Plotter is turned into normal
condition.
DF;
DF command does not affect the next state. In addition,
the next state also changes IN command into initial state.
Position of P1
and P2
The present pen, its position, up/down
-IP(Input P1 and P2)
It is used
together with SC command which is explained by the following clause and which
sets up scale and origin position of system of coordinates. Scaling points
P1(p1x, p1y) and P2(p2x, p2y) are set up.
IP p1x,p1y,p2x,p2y;
P1(p1x,
p1y) and P2(p2x, p2y) are plotter coordinates.
IP; It returns to P1 and P2
of different initial state for each plotter kind.
-SC(Scale)
To scaling points P1(p1x, p1y) and
P2(p2x, p2y) set up by IP command of preceding clause, position of user
coordinates is assigned and it changes to user system of coordinates.
SC
xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax;
(xmin, ymin) of user coordinates are to P1 (p1x, p1y)
of plotter coordinates,
(xmax, ymax) of user coordinates assign P2 (p2x,
p2y) of plotter coordinates.
The next command is used for returning to
plotter system of coordinates from user system of coordinates.
SC;
Example 1: left figure
User system of coordinates (X: 0..100,
Y:0..100) are assigned to plotter system of coordinates (X: 0..4000, Y:0..4000).
User system of coordinates become the same unit as mm.
Example 2: right
figure
User system of coordinates (X:-75..300, Y:-75..225) are assigned to
plotter system of coordinates (X:-6000..24000, Y:-6000..18000). User system of
coordinates become twice mm.

-ES(Extra Space)
Character gap of
character and line spacing are adjusted. Character gap and line spacing are
ratios which made width and height of NCP cell to 1. NCP cell is what appointed
standard space of one character, and the size is twice the height of English
uppercase character, and is 1.5 times the width. 0 is standard, positive value
extends space from standard and negative value is narrowed from standard.
ES CharacterGap(,LineSpacing);
ES; is the same as ES0,0; and is set as
standard space.

-BL(Buffer Label)
Character string of a
maximum of 150 characters for labels is stored in label buffer. Control codes,
such as carriage return and line feed, can be included. Character string stored
in buffer can be plotted many times by PB command.
BLCharacterString<ETX>
ETX is end-off text cord and is 3 in ASCII
code decimal number. It is changeable into another cord by DT command.
BL;
LB; Buffer is cleared.
Buffer will be rewritten if new BL command
comes.
-PB(Print Bufferd
Label)
The present position is made into lower left and character
string of label buffer is plotted. Position of LO command is
ignored.

-CS(Designate Standard Character Set)
Character set is specified as standard letters set.
CS
CharacterSetNumber;
Character set number is as follows.
8 1 byte
(half width) of katakana
101 Kanji of JIS code
When others are
specified, it is single byte character of ASCII.
CS; is the same as
CS0;
-CA(Designate

Character set is specified as auxiliary
character set.
CA CharacterSetNumber;
Character set number is as
follows.
8 1 byte (half width) of katakana
101 Kanji of JIS
code
When others are specified, it is single byte character of
ASCII.
CA; is the same as CA0;
-SS(Select Standard Character
set)
When plotting character, it specifies using standard letters
set by CS command.
SS;
In addition, if cord of shift in cord
<SI> (it is 15 at decimal number) is inserted in LB command, it will
become the same effect as SS command.
-SA(Select Alternate Character
Set)
When plotting character, it specifies using auxiliary character
set by CA command.
SA;
In addition, if cord of shift out cord
<SO> (it is 14 at decimal number) is inserted in LB command, it will
become the same effect as SA command.

7. Change of Plot Area
|
-IW(Input window)
It is used when
carrying out clipping of the drawing out of area specified here. Lower left
point (x1, y1) and upper right point (x2, y2) of clipping area are specified in
unit of plotter coordinate system.
IW x1,y1,x2,y2;
IW; Clipping is
canceled and plotter is plotted to the whole area which can be
plotted.
