Hi there,

I would like to know if there is a way we can compare PDF. Current Adobe acrobat version compare it line by line. I would like to ignore the blank space or a blank page while comparing.

Thanks,

Sam

Hi,

For ignoring blank pages, you may use "Compare text only" or "Reports, spreadsheets, magazine layouts"  mode in the compare dialog in Acrobat X, XI. Please reach out to us in case, you face any issues. You may also log a Bug Report or make a Feature Request at: Adobe Acrobat - Feature Request/Bug Report Form


Also, we have significantly improved Compare functionality in our new release of Adobe Acrobat DC. Please update to the latest version to give it a try. The new Compare Files Tool offers a Side-by-Side view which provides a better experience in identifying differences and a modern UI.

Latest version for Adobe Acrobat DC build number: 2015.020.20039 (Continuous).

For more info about the new Compare tool, visit: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/compare-documents.html as well.

If you are still on Acrobat X or XI, you can check out our trial version at: https://acrobat.adobe.com/in/en/free-trial-download.html​

Thanks,

Adobe Acrobat DC Team.
