Ez PDF Compare is a leading PDF compare application offered by DNC Data that automates change management for typeset files. It is not the usual redline, revision track, version track program but a post-edit document comparison and content verification software that is uniquely designed to address the issues and aspects that many other 'diff' commercial tools have failed to identify or solve.
Key Highlights
Postscript file format support: Ez PDF Compare supports postscript file format. This enables users to automate change management of typeset files.
Weighted comparison: Ez PDF Compare performs a weighted comparison that compares two documents in the same manner, as a user would do manually. This does away with the 'diff' way of doing line-to-line comparisons. The intelligent heuristic compare process reduces the false positive count and brings down the actual review process to a minimum.
Onscreen review environment: Ez PDF Compare's onscreen review environment offers a multi-paned view of the document comparison. The unique feature allows users to simultaneously view the comparison summary, together with both the original and modified documents making the review process simpler. Ez PDF Compare maintains a direct link between each of the changes reported and the location of change in both the original and revised documents enabling the user to directly jump and view mismatches in both documents. The application highlights the selected summary mismatches in both the documents.
Multiple file formats support: Ez PDF Compare supports multiple file formats of 'modified' files without the use of any filters for intermediate format conversion such as RTF. This allows for a combination of accurately comparing Postscript files to WORD/Excel /HTML & ASCII.
Multiple embedded objects support: Another principal feature that Ez PDF Compare offers is the ability to successfully recognize and parse multiple embedded objects in Microsoft Word document. No other existing compare software ( including DeltaView and DocuComp ) has the knowhow and functionality to read and handle the embedded objects viz.
- Embedded Excel tables,
- Excel Tables as pictures, and
- Linked Excel/Word files to Word documents
- Text boxes
Report summary: Clicking on the report summary item highlights the selected summary mismatches in both the documents even if one of the mismatches is in multilevel embedded object.
Unicode support: Ez PDF Compare gives full Unicode support while processing documents in any format.
Usage-based licensing models: The Ez PDF Compare licensing model offers two usage-based licensing models:
(a) Pay-As-You-Go Metered Use (Usage based), or (b) Yearly license (Up-front)
All these unique features make Ez PDF Compare the best software to use in the specific business operation cycle. Ez PDF Compare improves productivity and accuracy along with reduction in costs and turnaround time in the printing process.
