# Compare two PDF files
|
|
|
|
Install and use `diffpdf` (preferred) or `diff-pdf`:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo pacman -S diffpdf
|
|
sudo zypper install diff-pdf
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
diffpdf file1 file2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
As an alternative:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# create a pdf with the diff as red pixels
|
|
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
|
|
```
|
|
|
