Compare Versions of the same file​

If you would like to compare, for example "Version 1.00" and "Version 1.05" of a file, all that you need to do is to select the relevant versions that you wish to compare in the details pane and click the compare button.

Compare separate files​

Whilst this is less frequently used, you may wish to compare separate files (for instance a copy of a file vs the original). For that select one of the files you'd like to compare and click on the compare button in the top-bar.

In both scenarios a dialog will appear that will allow you to choose whether you wish to see the changes highlighted as a PDF or within Microsoft Word. The resulting "blacklining" of the document can easily be copied or converted into a PDF and attached to an email or instant message
