How to compare 2 PDF using java script or any other way using acrobat Pro.

In my project scope we have to compare generated output with old version of software. manually it is taking a lot of time.

I would like to have command like but if it is not available, then do we have any other way to do this apart from manually verification.

A script can only compare the textual elements of a PDF, as well as other

objects like form fields, comments, links, etc.

There's a built-in command in Acrobat to compare two documents, though.

Have you tried using it?

Hi,

I am aware of View-->Compare Files way to do the same ( and using the same in my daily life ). looking for other way to do the same like automation where script or command line will be very helpful. i was not able to find out any line of code or snapshot for the same..

Thanks

It can't be done using a script, beyond what I mentioned above. Maybe with a plugin. You can ask over at the Acrobat SDK forum about that...
