PACKZ

Purpose: PACKZ is a professional PDF editor built for label and packaging prepress and preparing artwork for print.
Native PDF editing: PACKZ edits PDF content while handling its layer, group, and page structure without converting it to an internal format.
Automation: Pactions records interactive editing steps as reusable action lists to reduce repetitive work.
Step and repeat: PACKZ combines one-up editing and step and repeat in one application, with tabular, grid, nested, and Packzimizer options described on its features page.
Variable data: PACKZ supports variable text, numbers, barcodes, images, and color for personalized labels and packaging.
Color: Its color management includes DeviceLink profiles, links to GMG OpenColor and matchmycolor Colibri, and PANTONE Digital Color support.
3D and warping: PACKZ supports artwork warping with real-time 3D viewing for applications including shrink sleeves and metal cans.
RIP integration: PACKZ Max includes Harlequin RIP for screening and output, and its features page says no extra RIP servers are needed for this workflow.
Workflow integration: PACKZ connects with on-premise CLOUDFLOW and SaaS-based MyCLOUDFLOW for automated prepress workflows.
Other integrations: The features page lists links to Arden Software and EngView Systems CAD libraries for nested step and repeat, and links to GMG OpenColor and matchmycolor Colibri for color management.
Supported systems: PACKZ system requirements are listed for macOS and 64-bit Windows; the page says Windows Server is not supported.
Hardware requirements: The downloads page specifies a quad-core Intel Core i7 or higher and at least 16 GB RAM for macOS and Windows, and says Apple M-series processors are supported from PACKZ 6.0.6 onward.
Training and support: Hybrid Software says it offers e-learning, on-site and remote customer-specific training, and certification in certain regions.
Intended users: Hybrid Software describes its solutions as serving print service providers, brands, converters, and OEMs, while PACKZ is purpose-built for label and packaging prepress.
