PCL is a format of a digital printed document created in the Printer Command Language (PCL) page description language, which describes the layout of text and graphics for the document. PCL files could be originally used by Hewlett-Packard printers in the 1980s and now used by HP LaserJet printers and others, which are widely used but offers fewer features than the PostScript (.PS) format. PCL files can be created from the Windows print dialog by redirecting the print output to a file using a compatible PCL driver. They can also be created in Unix systems by redirecting the printer queue to a file. And to convert PowerPoint to pcl, DOC to Any Converter Command Line will be your best friend.
