[comp.windows.ms] HPGL import in Designer

oivindt@ulrik.uio.no (Oivind Toien) (02/21/91)

Designer lacks the option to import HPGL. Most of my HPGL-files are
too big to be imported through the clipboard. (The PIC format seems to
be limited to 64K in most cases). I tested Corel Draw and transfer to
Designer through various formats, but it did a very bad job on my
HPGL-files. (Every line segment was converted to a polygon and it did
not interpret information about line types). And the transfer took
*very* long time (8MB system).

Are there any other way to import HPGL into Designer, or do we have to
wait for Micrografx to come out with a HPGL-filter in the next version?

Anyone who knows the format of .drw -files?
