When converting to PLT and back to SVG with uniconvertor, I saw a scaling error factor 1.25.
This corresponds to using scaling factor 1016/72, when converting from SVG to PLT and 1016/90, when converting from PLT to SVG.
That this is the case is confirmed by comparison with HPGL output (which is not scaled at all).

There should be an option for mirroring output or not, and I think the default should be no mirroring (according to hp's specification for plotter type device),

When using Windows fonts, uniconvertor cannot find the fonts and will use another font instead. It also cannot find this font.
Uniconvertor uses the Python installation under Windows, not the local installation under Inkscape.
Error output attached.

I will not have much time left the next two month, so I will unassign myself from this bug report.
