[Gnuplot-info] Plotting in Winxp

[John Y. <jr...@co...>]

Hi All,

I just found this program gnuplot and this forum.  I have a quick simple 
question.  Can gnuplot be used as a plotter driver to plot files made in 
AutoCAD LT?  In other words can an AutoCAD output file (.PLT, .DXF, .DWG 
) be plotted using gnuplot?

I have tried without success to do this.  However, I haven't tried it 
directly to the plotter.  I used the 'windows' terminal for test purposes.

The reason I ask is, my old plotter, HP7475A, had a driver for win98 but 
none for Winxp.  The only driver program I found costs $260, which is 10 
times more than the plotter's worth.  Looking for a way to use my old 
plotter in WinXP with AutoCAD LT.
