MapTextLabeller Changes

Editing Parameters

Starting with FME 2025.0, there are additional changes to Safe Software’s support for the MapTextLabeller transformer. Workspaces containing MapTextLabeller can still be opened and run with FME 2025.0. However, the settings for the MapTextLabeller transformer itself are no longer editable. FME 2024.0 is the recommended version for editing workspaces that use the MapTextLabeller transformer.

Downloading the MapTextLabeller Plugin

As of FME 2024.0, the MapTextLabeller Plugin will no longer be sold as a 3rd party plugin by Safe Software, but the Plugin will be directly available from MapText as a package. Existing customers who already have the MapTextLabeller may continue to use Safe Software’s FME 2023.x and earlier versions of the Plugin or choose to upgrade to the FME 2024.0 version of the Plugin provided directly by MapText.
