We need to make a comparison of 2 pdf files that show the changes between the files, but not in call-outs. Is there any way to do this in Acrobat DC Pro?

Hi @joken99 I'm not sure what you mean by "not in callouts" but I think you mean not in "pop up" notes. There are several ways to filter and show the differences, including running different reports. There are also some third-party apps that give you more options. Here are instructions on comparing two documents. Is what you need to do explained anywhere here? Compare two versions of a PDF file in Adobe Acrobat

Thanks for the quick response Jain!! One of the users requested that we show side by side results with strike-through's in red for deletions and blue underlining for new text that was added. They don't like the pop-up notes display. Thanks again for the help!!!! Have a great day!

Thanks for all the help Jain!!! I like the new format; but, apparantly one of the states we work with doesn't agree. Maybe @AnandSri will come up with something. I was hoping that possibly Adobe would give us some licenses for the Old version; but, apparantly that was a no-go! Have a great weekend!!!

You're welcome! I hope that you'll be able to find a way to work with the states. I like the new format, too, but I know the traditional redline is what people have been used to.
