- Get the latest version of xfig and transfig (2.1.6) available now from a X
- contrib sources archive near you. :) You can export decent IBMGL (HPGL) and
- WP 5.1 can load this format.
-
- It's not nearly as nice as EPS, but if you only have a regular HP
- laserjet type printer, it's a necessity evil and the next best thing.
