Frequently asked questions

Are my PDFs uploaded?

No. Both files are compared in your browser.

How does it find differences?

Each page is rendered to an image and compared pixel by pixel, so it detects visible changes in text, images and layout.

Why do identical-looking pages show tiny differences?

Small shifts or different fonts change pixels. The percentage tells you how big the change is.
