PDF Content Comparer

Intuitive, intelligent comparison of your PDFs.

Your PDFs contain actual content, not just text or images. i-net PDFC intelligently compares the content in your files. Any differences are shown in a visually gorgeous display, akin to holding up two pieces of paper to the light.

Text. Images. Lines. Tables.

Compare the style and position of virtually every element a PDF file contains.

Many of your PDF files will contain many different content elements. i-net PDFC is special because it is aware of all of them. Page headers and footers and multi-column layout are detected and handled correctly.

Intuitive Usage

Intuitive Usage

With a server license, i-net PDFC can quickly be integrated into your own workflow. Use our extensive API or get things running via command-line. This makes i-net PDFC well-suited for being used within your favorite CI solution such as Hudson/Jenkins.

PDF Content Comparer

Comparing is as simple as dragging two PDFs into the compare window and clicking on the compare button. The result is a simple, intuitive overview of any differences detected in the two PDFs.

Instead of only comparing text in the PDFs, or converting the PDFs to images and comparing those pixel by pixel like other comparison tools, i-net PDFC can intelligently compare the actual content elements in your files such as…

  • Text differences
  • Line/Arc/Box differences
  • Image differences
  • Margin differences

These types of differences can each be configured in regards to their sensitivity, making for a powerful, elegant way to compare your documents the way you want to.

i-net PDFC is a pure Java application. This means it runs on any platform with a Java Runtime Environment 71) - nearly every modern platform such as Windows 7, OSX 10.7 or Ubuntu 12.04.

Let me say that i-net PDFC is awesome.
