RE: Comparing .PDF files

["Gwen Fremonti" <gwen -dot- fremonti -at- primefactors -dot- com>]

Acrobat 5.0 has a Compare feature.

Tools>Compare>Two Documents (or Two Versions Within a Signed Document).

You can compare page by page visual differences, text only, or text
including font information (style, size, typeface).

Acrobat displays the two documents side-by-side, with differences
highlighted.

Hope that helps -
