Compare two PDF files

Install and use diffpdf (preferred) or diff-pdf:

sudo pacman -S diffpdf
sudo zypper install diff-pdf

diffpdf file1 file2

As an alternative:

# create a pdf with the diff as red pixels
magick compare -verbose -debug coder $PDF_1 $PDF_2 -compose src /tmp/$OUT_FILE.tmp

# merge the diff-pdf with background PDF_1
pdftk /tmp/$OUT_FILE.tmp background $PDF_1 output $OUT_FILE
