New Features
- Support for Microsoft Windows 11, Microsoft Visual Studio 2022, Microsoft .NET 6.
- New browser-based designer ("Web Report Designer"). The .NET 4.0 C# MVC web reporting sample is adapted so that both designers (client- and browser-based) can be used in parallel.
- New Web Report Viewer, this offers the same functionality as the previous HTML5 viewer, but is based on new technology and - like the Designer - is available as a WebComponent.
- Support for systems without printer driver. To use this, set LL_OPTION_PRINTERLESS to "1" before opening a job with job handle -1. The components offer a "Printerless" property.
- New LL_OPTION_VIRTUALDEVICE_SCALINGOPTIONS option to optimize text placement in environments without printer driver (see LL_OPTION_PRINTERLESS).
This also provides support for deployment to Microsoft Windows Docker containers. These can also be hosted on Microsoft Azure App Service accounts.
- Charts can be created in the designer using drag and drop.
- Microsoft Excel export supports tags "{ItemName}" (name of current Report Container item and "{PageNumber}" within the worksheet name. This makes them easier to customize.
- Microsoft Excel export supports hyperlinks set via the Link property in texts and table fields.
- Microsoft Excel export now allows disabling grid lines (XLS.ShowGridLines).
- New barcode type "Pharmacode".
- New image type "SVGZ".
- Designer function Drawing() now supports direct SVG input (e.g. Drawing('') ).

- Various enhancements to the FireDAC VCL component (e.g. ExportOptions class)
- New option LL_OPTION_SUPPRESS_TOOLTIPHINTS for suppressing the new info tooltips in the Designer.
- Crosstab label cells can now contain an image.
