When to compare PDFs

How the comparison works

The tool extracts the text of both files, finds the lines that differ and then highlights the exact words that were removed or added. Each change shows the page where it appears in each file.

Tips

Frequently asked questions

What does the tool compare?

The text of the two documents. Removed words are shown in red on the left and added words in green on the right, with their page numbers.

Are images and layout compared?

No. Only text is compared. Changes in pictures, colours or positions are not detected.

Does it work with scanned PDFs?

No. Scanned pages are images without text, so there is nothing to compare.

Can I save the result?

Yes. Download the comparison as an HTML report that opens in any browser and can be printed.

Does it work with Arabic documents?

Yes. Text in Arabic and every other language is compared word by word.

Are my documents uploaded?

No. Both files are processed in your browser and never leave your device.
