= SUMMARY =

This article describes the procedures for exporting an HPGL print file from Lotus Freelance Plus versions 3.0 and 3.01. Lotus Freelance Plus versions 2.0, 2.01, 3.0, and 3.01 all have the ability to export in HPGL format; however, menu options and subsequent steps for exporting an HPGL print file may differ slightly from the instructions below.

To export an HPGL print file from Freelance Plus, do the following:

  In the Charts and Drawings module, select Print Options and enter the following information:   In the Device field, press the SPACEBAR to view device options, and select HP 7440a. Note: Freelance Plus can have up to five output devices installed at once. If an option is not visible for the HP 7475A, refer to the information on installing devices in the “Lotus Freelance Plus Reference.”   In the Read Options From field, choose “current settings” if composing an image that has not yet been saved to disk, or choose “saved file” if the current settings for the file to be exported have already been saved to disk.   In the Output Mode field, press the SPACEBAR to view output options, and select File.   In the File Path field, enter the desired destination of the print file.   In the File Name field, enter the desired file name with an HGL file extension.   In the Overwrite field, choose Yes.   Press F10 or / (forward slash) when done to save settings and return to the Freelance Plus menu. </li></ol> </li>  Select Print, Go. </li></ol>

Freelance will now generate an HPGL print file in the directory location specified.
