The .PMP file type is associated with AutoCAD, one of the leading computer-aided design (CAD) software applications. .PMP files, also known as Plot Model Parameters, contain a set of plot driver settings natively used by AutoCAD to format output to a specific printer. The PMP file extension stores information such as page size, paper source, color setting, resolution, and plotting backgrounds. It also contains settings related to pen assignments, lineweights, and the resizing of model space objects in AutoCAD.
Common Uses of the PMP File Extension
The PMP file format can be used to output projects from AutoCAD for printing. For example, an architect may employ the .PMP file extension to create sets of floor plans and blue prints for a specific project using AutoCAD before printing them for a client. Businesses in fields like engineering, mechanical design, architecture, construction, landscaping, and cartography use this file format extensively.
Frequently Used Similar File Extensions
The .PMP file type is one of several related file extensions used to store printing and plotting profiles together with other similar or related CAD formats such as .PLT, .CGM, and .PC2.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .PMP) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .PMP extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .PMP file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .PMP extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .PMP extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .PMP file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .PMP file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .PMP file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .PMP file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .PMP file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
