[GPlates-discuss] Conversion of text data for plotting lines and points

[Christian.Heine at shell.com]

Genti,

if it is in GMT format, you can also simply open it in GPlates (drag'n drop into the main window) and use the "manage feature collections" tool/window to simply save that file as *.gpmlz

Cheers,
Christian
