Quick answers
Frequently asked questions
What does Compare PDFs compare?
It compares extractable text on corresponding pages and reports wording differences. It does not inspect pixels, placement, or color.
Will scanned PDFs show wording differences?
Only if text can be extracted. Matrix OCR downloads separate text for manual review; it does not add a text layer that this comparison can read.
