PDF Comparision showing False positives

Hi,

Using Acrobat Professional for PDF comparison. While comparing 2 PDF documents, 80% mismatches are due to False Positives. Many false positives shows the following: The following text attributes were changed. font, fill ,color , size.

However, I don't want these to be highlighted if changes are due to font, fill,color or size.

I've tried to fix this, but couldn't get through.

Thanks,

Chandraswamy HM

Thanks for your quick responses.

One last question:Does the above said version 2019 would avoid getting initially said false positives due to font, fill,color,size?


If you have test files to share, I could give it a try...

Don't these settings help?

Hi, Thanks for your response.

I had already try to fix this by changing the 'settings'.

However, 'settings' icon was not found, which is generally below 'compare text only'.

Could you please assist in finding the above said 'settings' icon.
