PLC to MIF Conversion: FAQ
What are PLC files?
The PLC extension is attached to images that represent the top silkscreen of an electronic board, most likely processed via Eagle software. PLC is part of the Gerber group of extensions, which functions as a de facto standard for storing images in the printed circuit board (PCB) industry. Other extensions included in this group are STC, STS and PLS. Each format contains data on a different segment or detail of an electronic board, including solder masks, copper layers etc.
What are MIF files?
The MIF extension can be associated with vector images under the MapInfo Interchange Format, in which case it consists of a map and a database exporting file. Also MIF or MIFF file format represents a raster image associated with ImageMagick. This open source program is specialized in editing images, and it is mostly popular among developers as it doesn't have an advanced graphical user interface, so it can mainly be used under command-line. reaConverter supports both types of MIF formats and can convert to vector MIF if the source file is also a vector, and to raster if the source file is a raster image.
