PDF Compare

If you work with multiple document drafts and you need to compare them constantly, you can get a specialized application to make your work easier. A good choice is PDF Compare. It lets you compare PDFs side by side and it makes all differences stand out. The software is capable of performing both text and graphical content. Even the slightest differences can be spotted without too much effort.

A free evaluation is available, which doesn't have any functionality restrictions. The software comes in a small package and it can be installed quickly, without making any advanced settings. There are no special requirements you have to meet and you don't need powerful hardware.

The user interface consists of two blank panels, on which you can load two PDFs, through separate browsing options, located in the File menu. The loaded documents are displayed side by side, so you can see all differences. Of course, the software can perform comparisons itself if you select one of the options in the Compare menu.

The software can perform a text and graphics comparison, but it can also perform other comparisons separately. You can opt for a visual, text or structure comparison and you can also perform a byt-by-byt comparison. You only need to select one of these options and the results will appear immediately on a separate window. The results windows will highlight all differences between the compared documents, to make them easier to spot. What's more, you can generate, save or print detailed reports.

With PDF Compare, identifying differences between PDFs can be a quick and effortless task, regardless of their count.
