I have a program that creates  HPGL (Hewlet Packard Graphics Language)
files that are meant to be  outputted to either a pen plotter or any device
(or translator) that can  read HPGL files.  What I am really interested in
would be a program  (such as "Designer" - a MacDraw-like program for the
IBM) that could read or import such files so that they can be edited and
then sent to a laser  printer.  Designer is very nice and it can read a
variety of file types,  such as TIF, but it can't read HPGL.  One
possibility would be a translator  program that can convert HPGL files to
TIF or some other common vector file  format. All advice appreciated,
