NAME

       comparepdf - compare two PDF files textually or visually

SYNOPSIS

       diffpdf [file1] [file2]

SYNOPSIS

       comparepdf [OPTIONS] file1.pdf file2.pdf

DESCRIPTION

       comparepdf is a command line application used to compare two PDF files.
       The  default  comparison  mode  is  text mode where the text of each corresponding pair of
       pages is compared. As soon as a difference is  detected  the  program  terminates  with  a
       message (unless -v0 is set) and an indicative return code.
       The  OPTIONS  are  -ct or --compare=text (the default) for text mode comparisons or -ca or
       --compare=appearance for visual comparisons (useful  if  diagrams  or  other  images  have
       changed),  and  -v=1  or  --verbose=1  for  reporting  differences (and saying nothing for
       matching files): use -v=0 for no reporting  or  -v=2  for  reporting  both  different  and
       matching files.
