Printer Command Language (.pcl)

The PCL file extension, Printer Command Language, is a page description language developed by Hewlett-Packard (HP) in the 1980s. It is used to control printer features and describe the layout of text and graphics on a printed page. PCL files contain commands that instruct the printer on how to print the document, including details like size, layout, and resolution. Initially designed for HP's inkjet and dot matrix printers, PCL has evolved to support various printer types, including laser printers. Its simplicity and efficiency have made it a widely adopted standard in the printing industry.

Encapsulated PostScript Interchange with TIFF Preview (.ept)

The EPT file extension stands for Encapsulated PostScript Interchange with TIFF Preview. It is primarily used in professional graphic design and desktop publishing, particularly with Adobe software. EPT files combine PostScript data for high-quality printing with a TIFF preview for on-screen viewing. This format emerged to facilitate the exchange of complex graphic files between different systems and applications, ensuring both print accuracy and visual consistency. Its adoption has been crucial in workflows requiring precise color management and detailed image rendering.
