When opening some of lbl files using fonts with very long names the wrong font could be selected

Zebra Technologies Driver

This driver now has options to configure the Graphic Format to be sent to the printer.  It also has a Single Graphic option rather than sending each field as a image.

True Type Font

Some true type fonts were not listed correctly in the list control - this mainly effected Asian Font.  Labels using these fonts would then select the first font in the list as the original one could not be found.

On Windows 7 machines the program would crash when closing showing a Windows crash report.  This was since an upgrade to Visual Studio.  The issue has now been resolved.

Bixolon Driver

The Bixolon driver would crash when entering the Driver Parameters screen

Field Sizes

The height of fields created could be different for the same data depending on the zoom ration and label dimensions.  This could mean a ±0.1mm difference depending on how the fields were created.

Zebra Driver

The change to the Zebra Technologies driver implemented in v7.0.000.067 meant that the default settings for the driver was changed meaning the Tear Off Position and Back Feed options were no longer sent unless the new controls were enabled.  The defaults are now the same as pre v7.0.000.067

Count Fields

Count fields ( text and barcodes ) did not work if getting the data From Other Field or Database

Zebra Driver

The Zebra Technologies driver now has parameters to set the Tear Off Position and the Back Feed options.

The comments section did not save comments with spaces or a ' single quote .  This has now been fixed

Rotated 180° Fields

When rotating a text field 180° it was sized slightly larger unless the item was edited then it sized correctly

Multiline Fields

If the line spacing for a multiline field was set smaller than default it would not print correctly as seen on the screen.

Copying Text Fields

If copying a text field with more than 48 characters the new field would no be created correctly causing the program to crash if that field was edited.

Database Field Names

If foreign characters ( not 0-9 or A-Z ) were used for a Database Field Name then this label would not work when reloaded

Sato Driver

A bug which prevented the Sato driver from being used was fixed.

Corrupt Installation

The program could write the configuration settings incorrectly causing the lcn.ini file to have its settings removed.  The program would then not start correctly without manually fixing the settings.

CAB Driver

Changes to the way the CAB driver handled date and time fields when printing from external programs.

Autonics Driver

The Autonics Ring driver could error when using printers with multiple heads and the ribbon foil saver option.

ASCII Server

If the label name was specified in a import file in the ASCII server without the .lblu extension the program would fail.

ASCII Server

Auto sizing of columns when previewing data was very slow for large text files.

CAB Driver

When printing using Date and Time fields the label format was not sent correctly causing the printer to error.

Godex Driver

If the Gap value is zero for a created label but Vertical Repeat is greater than the Label Height then this difference is sent to the printer as the Gap value.   The GAP value in the label setup screen will remain zero.

Intermec Driver

Adjustments to handle large vertical repeats where the label sensor need to be deactivated.

Memory Optimisation.

The program is now optimized to handle multiple labels being opened and closed.  Previously a crash could occur if many labels were open and closed in one session.

Ring Driver

For models with 4 print heads the RUS/RUT/RUR commands were not being sent for the 2nd,3rd or 4th head.

RTF Field

If an RTF field was rotated 90° or 270° then it would not print correctly

Counters

If a counter on a label was printed with a quantity of 1 then the counting would fail for following prints.

Printer Settings

If any printer settings contained characters other then A-Z or 0-9 then these setting would not be read back correctly when the program starts

If a printer driver with a specific setting was selected then the driver was changed to a model that did not handle that setting the value was not changed to a valid one.  For example if a printer has a minimum speed value of 30 but the model was changed to one with 75 it would not change the value to a valid one, now it does.

Pre Printed Fields

If a field was set to pre printed it would default foreground and background color both to black.  Now it is Black and White.
