General limitations
List & Label Cross Platform (LLCP) focuses on headless, server-side report generation. As a result, several components available in the Classic Edition are not included.
No report designer
LLCP does not ship with a report designer — neither the Desktop Designer nor the Web Report Designer is available. Report projects must be created and edited using the Classic Edition designer and then converted to the JSON-based project format.
See Migrating from Classic Edition for the conversion workflow, including the option to restrict the designer to Cross Platform-compatible features.
Missing report objects
The following report object types from the Classic Edition are currently not supported in LLCP:
- Form controls (checkboxes, radio buttons, input fields)
- Gantt charts
- HTML objects
- OLE/ActiveX containers
- Crosstab objects
Missing export formats
Not all export formats from the Classic Edition are available. Currently supported formats are PDF, CSV, XLSX, DOCX, JSON, and image formats (PNG, JPEG, SVG).
Formats not available in LLCP include:
- HTML export
- RTF export
- MHTML export
- TIFF export (multi-page)
- XPS export
- Text/layout export
- Preview-based printing to printer
