Q3D to HPG Conversion
What are Q3D files?
The Q3D format is associated with QuickDraw 3D or QD3D, a program initially launched in the mid-1990s for Macintosh computers. The program offered a series of features for 3D graphics design, but registered modest popularity. Starting with the late 1990s, Mac applications for 3D graphics became based on OpenGL, a cross-platform programming interface more widely used by similar applications.
What are HPG files?
HPG is a vector image format created in a standard programming language called HPGL (Hewlett-Packard graphics language). Other extensions created in this language include PLT, HP2 and PL2. All are called "plotter files" and are created by drawing programs such as AutoCAD to be printed using a device specialized in vector graphics. An HPG file uses a line series of two-letter codes to render an image and can also include parameters.
