Infix Pro PDF Editor

Find and see all the differences between two similar PDFs that have the same number of pages. The facility may also be used in a more passive way to just view two different PDF together.

Find:

• differences in appearance - changes to image, fonts, colours etc.
• differences in content - where words have been added / removed

How To Compare 2 PDFs

• Choose File->Compare PDFs... or drag and drop two PDFs onto Infix Pro PDF Editor. 
  The drag & drop method gives you the option of just displaying two PDFs side by side without scanning them for differences first.
• Press the Browse... buttons to choose each file if you need to.
• Choose how you want to compare the two:
• Differences in appearance
  You can choose to ignore images and/or text. If you ignore both, the comparison will be done on the vector artwork in the PDF.
• Differences in content
  Only the text held on each page is compared. This mode can be more useful when looking for textual differences than relying on graphical appearance alone.
• Show the comparison toolbar by choosing View->Toolbars->Compare PDFs
• Press to show/hide the differences shown in red
• Press to re-run the comparison after editing one of the PDFs
• Press to see a details breakdown of the differences in each page
