Problem

Symptoms: The customer is using a product called Graph-in-the-Box Executive (GITB). When the user prints a graph in GITB, it looks fine. When the user brings the same file into WP to print, it looks chunky--not very sharp and the clarity is poor. The user converted the file to an HPGL format in GITB, then brought it directly into WP as a graphic. Solutions: This situation is related to the methods WP uses to scale the HPGL graphics image. When WP scales the image, the lines in the graphic are also scaled. This causes the lines in the graphic to appear larger. The /W option in Graph Convert (GRAPHCNV.EXE) was created to bypass this scaling and keep the default line width, making all line widths one pixel wide (hairline width). Hairline width lines do not get scaled with the picture (i.e., if the picture size increases, the line widths do not). The line width without the /W option is .32mm, which gets scaled with the picture (i.e., if the picture increases in size, the line width increases). The program works this way with any printer and any HPGL file.
