For photoshop use the jpeg.plot

for Illustrator use the pdf.plt to make pdfs and use those in illustrator or use epsc.plt thats the colour encapsulated post script Adobe illustrator will work with those... even hpgl.plt can work I think with illustrator if you set it to make a file..

I have even used a post script printer useing printer.plt but had to tell the windows printer for the postscript printer to print to file not paper and this file then is a eps file and illustrator will open that.

There are a number of plot files that allow you to print to an image file. jpeg, tif etc. If you have a look at the plot files delivered you should be able to find them easily. Is this what you're after?

Are you trying to produce drawing type plots or more realistic images? If you're after more realistic images, then you need to look more into the rendering option in XM. If you have a search of the forums, there is plenty of good info to help you along.
