The .lbl and .nlbl files are the intermediate files for the ZebraDesigner v3 label design tool. They are in binary format and not meant for direct consumption outside the ZebraDesigner v3. Your application should use the ZPL label files, which are the output of the ZebraDesigner v3. Visit the ZebraDesigner v3 product page for details.

Thanks. We can read and process ZPL labels files. Using the designer is our intented future plan. Since the project also intendeds to move away from the current printers (700+) to a diffrent brand - hopefully to using Zebras all across.   However, there are xxthousands of .lbl and .nlbl files representing complex labels which we need to port over and/or somehow integrate going forward. The available conversion tools that we have reviewd don't work. Hence, our need to understanding the from/to structures for any new printer/SW combination selected fo the project.  Thanks again for your help - although it appears that we may need to consider alternative hardware/SW.  Much appriciated.
