Why compare PDFs
Comparing PDFs is either pixel diff or text stream diff — and they answer different questions. Pixel diff catches moved logos; text diff catches changed clause numbers even when layout shifts.

Free?
Yes.
File size limits?
Large files take longer to render both sides.
How does visual diff differ from enterprise CLM tools?
