KNOWN ISSUES
On GNU/Linux platforms, 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 glabels-batch-qt using a virtual X server environment:
xvfb-run glabels-batch-qt -o output.pdf myProject.glabels
