The HPGL file extension, short for Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language, is a file format and printer control language developed by Hewlett-Packard in 1977 for use with their plotter printers, starting with the HP-9872. HPGL files contain commands that instruct plotters to draw images using lines rather than dots, making them essential in CAD applications and technical drawings. The language uses a series of two-letter codes followed by parameters to control the plotter's actions, such as moving the pen or drawing shapes.
The PCDS file extension stands for Photo CD Multi-resolution Bitmap Graphics, a format developed by Kodak in 1991 for digitizing and storing high-quality images on CDs. PCDS files were used to store scanned prints and slides, leveraging proprietary encoding to maintain image quality. This format was part of Kodak's Photo CD system, which aimed to provide a reliable method for archiving and accessing digital photographs.
