List & Label Reporting Blog

A very popular wish from our Idea Place is finally fulfilled in version 30 – SVG files are optionally output as vectors.

Maybe you’ve already seen it on our social networks, our website, or in our livestream: at combit, we’re currently working on a new, forward-looking offshoot of List & Label—a cross-platform reporting solution that will primarily run on Linux. Internally, we call this project List & Label Cross Platform (LL-CP). It is aimed primarily at developers looking for a stable, high-performance, and modern reporting solution.

The List & Label Service Pack 29.004 is here – with support for Windows Server 2025 and Embarcadero RAD Studio 12.2. Additionally, there are many new improvements, for example, in CSV export, printing, and Report Server performance. In the area of security, there is a new .NET update.

The latest service pack 28.008 for List & Label brings support for Embarcadero RAD Studio 12.2 (BDE & FireDAC) and optimizations for caching mechanisms and memory management.

The latest service pack 30.001 for List & Label brings support for Windows Server 2025 and expands our .NET 6 and .NET 8 assemblies with support for DesignerControl.

QR codes have extremely good error correction. This can be used to add design elements to these codes or to vary the shape and size of the individual modules in order to achieve graphic effects. Previously, List & Label could output standard QR codes. With version 30, there are a number of new options for the code.

Since the release of ChatGPT, the world of artificial intelligence (AI) has changed rapidly. You’ve probably already had experience with tools like ChatGPT or GitHub Copilot that take developer workflows to a new level. At combit, we’re also open to the possibilities that AI offers, and are continuously integrating them into our own processes.

At combit, we prioritize accessibility in our software solutions. Understanding the importance of Section 508 compliance, we have developed a Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) for List & Label to help you meet these requirements.

Applications are increasingly deployed in Docker environments or directly on the web server. With doing so, it’s often challenging to provide fonts. In particular, installing fonts in Docker containers can be a tedious task, as previously documented here in our forum. Fonts often can’t be easily distributed or installed on web servers either. This creates a situation, particularly with company-owned fonts, in which not all required fonts are available by default.

The latest service pack 29.003 for List & Label brings support for Windows 11 24H2 and an enhanced configuration option for the Web Report Designer to streamline the printing process. Additionally, advanced caching mechanisms have been implemented to reduce server load.
