Compare PDFs automatically

Post by MarioJu »

Hello,

we are evaluating the PDF-XChange Viewer for a customer with about 1700Users. One key feature they use in Adobe Professional and want to have in future is to compare PDFs automatically. (display two pdfs --> click conpare --> and show the differences...)
Until now I've not found such a feature in the Viewer.

Is it planned to implement/support this feature with the Viewer?

Kind regards...

Mario

We can add such feature, but only into build 42 of the viewer.

Second question, is it planned to support this feature also with the PDF-XChange Viewer ActiveX SDK?
In addition we want to use the SDK to integrate the viewer in our RCP application. Therefore this feature to compare pdfs is more than helpful for us.

Thanks, Mario.

We have no current date for the release of 42, and the sdk would normally follow approx 14 days after a realease - however it's a moving target as that is the nature of software development.

HTH :)

Hi,

One small ammendment to the above - the SDK's are usually released at the same time as the end user releases - unless there is a specific issue that requires further attention.
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

Best regards
