BUGS
----

On GNU/Linux platforms, :program:`glabels-batch-qt` must be run from within a windowing environment, such as X or Wayland.  This is because Qt requires a suitable platform to obtain system font information.  A work-around is to run :program:`glabels-batch-qt` using a virtual X server environment:

.. code:: shell
	  
	  xvfb-run glabels-batch-qt -o output.pdf myProject.glabels
