- GTPRINT.EXE (Available with registered version.)
-
- This is a program to convert a plotter file
- (name.GTG) to output high resolution graphs onto a standard
- EPSON/compatible graphics printer.
-
- Operation:
-
- Load the plotter driver (from DRAW or GRAPH) and create a
- plotter file of a diagram or graph. During the setup stage,
- select Printer instead of Plotter. (Do not use Direct mode.)
- When the plotter file is Run [PR], the HPGL printer driver is loaded.
- When the file name is requested, enter the plotter file name
- previously created. (Do not include the .GTG extension.)
-
- Three resolutions are possible. Normally use the 960 dot
- resolution. (Usually only the text size is affected.) The higher
- the resolution, the slower the printing speed.
- To abort printing, press <ESC>. It may take up to minute to respond.
- You will then be asked for another filename. Press <ESC> to exit.
-
- NOTES: Complex graphs or drawings can take up to 45 minutes on a
- normal XT. An 80286 or faster processor is desirable.
- Pattern fill is limited to that of an HPGL plotter.
