Frequently asked questions

Does it show text differences between two PDFs?

Yes. The comparison finds text differences and produces a report you can review.

Are layout and design changes detected?

The comparison is text-focused. Visual layout, colour or positioning changes may not appear in the report.

Can I compare scanned PDFs?

Scanned documents without a text layer cannot be compared; run OCR on them first.
