Compare and contrast PDF files with DiffPDF, a free and open-source software that highlights differences using color coding, making it easy to identify changes.
DiffPDF is an open source software application used to visually compare two PDF files and documents. It highlights the differences between two PDFs, making it easy to see what text, images, or other elements have changed.
To use DiffPDF, you simply open the two PDFs you want to compare. The software then analyzes the PDFs and color codes the differences - text that was added is highlighted in green, text that was deleted is marked in red. This makes visual comparison very simple, as you can quickly scan the document and identify the changes.
In addition to color coding, DiffPDF also includes tools to navigate between changes, copy text from the PDFs, and generate reports summarizing the differences. It works reliably well even for long, complex documents.
As an open source program, DiffPDF is completely free to use or modify. It runs on Windows, Linux, and macOS. The intuitive visual diff tools make DiffPDF well suited for developers, legal teams, business users, or anyone needing to quickly compare two versions of a PDF document.
