Compare PDFs highlights every textual and structural difference between two versions of a file — added, removed, or changed text, moved paragraphs, and page-level changes — side by side, for reviewing contract redlines or catching unauthorized edits.
| You want to… | Use this tool |
|---|---|
| Added text | A new clause 12.3 appears in the revised draft |
| Removed text | A liability cap is deleted |
| Changed text | "30 days" becomes "45 days" |
| Moved text | Clause 7 now sits after clause 9 — shown as a move, not a delete plus an add |
| Page changes | A page is inserted, and the rest of the comparison stays aligned |
