Hybrid Software Helix (formerly Global Graphics Software) develops intelligent software components that power the digital front ends and workflows behind high-speed digital presses, where performance, reliability and speed are critical. Applications include commercial print to labels and packaging, and industrial inkjet. Helix works closely with printer manufacturers to help them achieve exceptional press performance and bring their press to market faster. 

As part of Hybrid Software, Helix can offer a full suite of print software solutions—from file pre-flighting, prepress workflow, and ColorLogic color management, to sending print data directly to inkjet printheads via Meteor Inkjet drive electronics. It is the only company in the industry that can drive any digital press with technology developed entirely in house.

Best known as the developer of the trusted Harlequin RIP, Helix is renowned for its innovation and has received numerous industry awards. In 2026 it celebrates its 40th anniversary, marking four decades of leadership in print technology.
