Case Study: Square SA achieves industrial-grade packaging soft-proofing with DALIM SOFTWARE's PDF PerfectPreview in ES

How DALIM SOFTWARE users are helping to improve ES

Square SA needed a PDF soft‑proofing solution adapted to complex packaging requirements (different whites, hot stamping, embossing and ink combinations) and partnered with DALIM SOFTWARE to co‑develop it. The result was "PDF PerfectPreview" integrated into the ES platform, a production-grade PDF that embeds packaging‑specific data and behaves as both the standardized soft proof and the actual packaging print file.

DALIM SOFTWARE’s PerfectPreview injects XMP metadata and packaging specifications into a single PDF so the virtual proof follows the production file through all workflows, eliminating separate proof and print files, reducing the risk of errors and keeping approvals aligned with the final print output. The solution meets European Commission labelling needs, handles complex inking and exposure sequences that standard viewers cannot, and enables industrial generation of compliant, production‑ready PDFs without slowing the approval circuit.
