What is a PLT file?
PLT files are based on the HPGL (Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language) and are used by plotters to draw vector-based designs. They store commands for line drawing, curves, and text placement.
PLT is commonly used in engineering, CAD, and architecture workflows for large-scale technical prints.
How to open PLT files
You can open PLT files with tools like AutoCAD, CorelDRAW, or HP's own software. Some free viewers and converters also support the format.

What is a DXF file?
DXF stands for Drawing Exchange Format and was created by Autodesk to facilitate data interoperability between AutoCAD and other software. Unlike DWG, DXF is an open format, often used to exchange design data between different CAD tools.
DXF files can store 2D and 3D data and are commonly used in CNC machining, laser cutting, and vector design. Their plain text structure makes them easier to interpret but can result in larger file sizes compared to binary formats.
How to open DXF files
DXF files can be opened with almost any CAD software, including AutoCAD, LibreCAD, SolidWorks, and CorelDRAW. Many vector editors and laser cutting tools also support DXF.
AnyConv makes it easy to convert DXF files to SVG, PDF, or other formats for broader compatibility.
