PCL (Printer Command Language) is a page description language from Hewlett-Packard used for a variety of laser printers. It is a binary file format used for creating and printing documents, such as text, graphics and images. PCL documents contain commands for controlling a printer, such as font selection, line drawing and text manipulation. Files with the PCL extension are called spool files, and are created when a computer sends a document to a printer for printing. PCL files can be opened and edited with a text editor, as long as the editor is capable of reading binary files. However, the PCL format is complex, making it difficult to interpret and modify.
