Please be aware when using the PDF comparator:
Problems with PDF comparison may occur with large documents:
-
Performance loss

Page assignment when inserting new pages
When inserting a new page, all following pages will be marked as different.
If the PDF document consists of multiple layers, there is a possibility that not all layers will be recognized by the PDF comparator.
If you want to save only PDF documents in your component, the PDF component is recommended. When saving documents created with different editors, the Documentation component is recommended because it has integrated binary, ASCII, Excel, PDF and Word comparators.
If you want to create the PDF component, you will find it in the Adobe Systems directory.
If you want to create the Documentation component, you can find it in the _Universal directory.
