The FLB ( FLB) file extension is an abbreviation for FileMaker Pro Label File. It is a type of database file format developed by FileMaker Inc., a cross-platform software company. FLB files store labels created with the label setup feature of FileMaker Pro, a stand-alone relational database software program. A FLB label file contains information about the layout of a printed label, such as the data structure and font settings of the label’s text fields, as well as any text or graphics used in the design of the label.
Uses and Compatibility
FLB files are mainly used to store address labels that are formatted by FileMaker Pro. Users can create, manage, and print labels directly from the software without needing to use an external program. The file type is compatible with Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows, and iOS versions of FileMaker Pro.
Other popular related file extensions include Database, .DFM, and FM7. Also, users can convert FLB files into other formats such as PDF, TXT, HTML, SVG, RTF and more using dedicated converter software.
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .FLB) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .FLB extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .FLB file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .FLB extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .FLB extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .FLB file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .FLB file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .FLB file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .FLB file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .FLB file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
