    Hi,

    I've been using old good DOS command to plot hpp files but I had problems
    plotting some of them. Since I can't preview it or convert it is there any
    other way to open them or preview them?
    Thanks

  2. Where do you get these hpp files from? Doesn't sound familiar to me within
    the AutoCAD context. If they come from other software and .hpp means hp plot
    files (HPGL, HPGL/2), you could try Viewcompanion
    (www.softwarecompanions.com). To spool these files, you could use my free
    GoPlot or Drop&Print tools (http://members.lycos.nl/goplot).

    To check if it's a HPGL,HPGL2 or HP-RTL you can also use this freeware....

    But be carefull, if the file is diaplyed corectly, it does not mean that
    your plotter will produce a correct plot.
    It depends of your plotter manufacturer&model.
