About Compare PDFs

Drop two versions of a contract, a paper or a report and see exactly what changed. Pages line up side by side, and added or removed text is highlighted so you do not have to read both.

  • Works best on text PDFs; scans need OCR PDF first.
  • Use the text-only view for long documents.
  • Page counts can differ; the tool aligns by content.

How to use it

  1. 1Drop the old and the new PDF.
  2. 2Step through the pages; changes are highlighted.
  3. 3Export a summary of the differences if you need one.
