compare two PDFs using acrobat to adobe via command line

Does anyone know how to compare two PDFs using acrobat to adobe via command line. I want to do this via command line, because we want to compare hundreds of files each day through some automated tasks in windows.

If the command line option is not available in acrobat format, then it is possible to use acrobat javascript API to perform this task?

Any kind of help will be greatly.

Command line: not possible.

JavaScript: Possible, but very limited. Basically, the only thing you can do is simulate the clicking Compare Documents. The rest must be done manually.

However, it * might * be possible to automate this process a bit more using a plugin. Ask for more at the Acrobat SDK forum for more information...

  • Is it possible to compare two PDFs using labview?

    I was wondering if it was possible to use LabVIEW to compare two PDF files (that contain images as well as text) to another. I know that Bluebeam PDF viewer can do, so I was hoping there was a way to do it with LabVIEW.

    Read each file as a simple string, and then compare the two strings for equality.

    (You can also do a few tests before, for example just to see if the sizes are equal)

  • Compare 2 PDF of the file through the command line using the Acrobat SDK

    Hello

    I want to compare 2 by command line of the PDF using the Acrobat SDK, is it possible?

    My needis to create Automation for comparison in .net, c# technology to compare files of 100.

    Could you be it someone at - it one please let me if the Acrobat SDK kit supports integration with .NET and is it possible to call the term comapere.

    OK, Acrobat is not suitable. It is not technically suitable for the server; also no license. It doesn't have a command line, only OLE user interface.

    There are Acrobat PDF library, allowing development in C/C++. But I think that there is no function to compare. You will need to implement one yourself, which is a probably a lot of work. What kind of comparison do you want? If you just want to know if the files have changed at all you can use all the checksums without any API. Or are you looking for any Visual change? Or text change...?

  • How can I edit a PDF using Acrobat 9 - Version 9.4.0

    My company - [name deleted by the host] purchased Acrobat 9 - Version 9.4.0. for me

    How can I edit a PDF using Acrobat 9 - Version 9.4.0

    I need to edit - copy, extract text, add text, etc. from existing PDF files to SAVE my changes,

    or create a new PDF file from an existing file.

    It is very important for me to be able to do my job effectively.

    I spent over 2 hours in recent days and another hour today, still cannot do.

    Please answer as soon as POSSIBLE a solution.

    Thanks in advance,

    PDF is a format of destination end - even if Acrobat is able to make minor changes in a file (for example, correct typos) is not a word processor or desktop Publishing application. Major changes must be made in the original document and the PDF re-exported.

    You can copy the text to a file by selecting and right-clicking, or you can save the file in the form of regular or formatted text. To make small changes to the text on a page, use the Editor tool - see the help file for more information.

  • How to search in a pdf via command line package

    How can I search a specific PDF file within a PDF batch via command line? Previously, I used the following code in VB6 to find a unique PDF file successfully.

    acroPath = String (128, "") ' initialize the string

    resultStatus = FindExecutable (pdfPath, vbNullString, acroPath)


    acroPath = Replace (acroPath, vbNullChar, "") "get rid of the null character

    «acroPath = "" "" & Trim$ (acroPath) & "»


    cmdLineString = acroPath & "/ n/a" "search =" "& searchString &" "" "" & pdfPath

    Call the Shell (cmdLineString, constant vbNormalFocus)

    I now get this file in a PDF package, so how can I change the command line to search for the specific package file?

    I understand that I can not use OLE with just the drive nor the DDE as the search function is not exposed in the drive. So I find myself with the command line.

    I only have Acrobat Reader blown on Win XP SP2, not the full version of Acrobat 8.1.

    SAV

    No fix - no command line option.

    And Yes, you're right about OLE and DDE.

  • Adobe Reader 11 (XI) will not open the file via command line

    Hello

    I posted this question probably inappropriate topic earlier today, so I am repeating again.

    I installed the new Adobe Reader XI today and when I tried to open some PDFs via command line, it reported a syntax error. Now, this syntax worked so far on versions 9 and 10 (I checked today with them and it does not), so my question is - where can I find new syntax, if there are? Google search did not help. Or what else could go wrong?

    In previous versions, I was able to open the pdf file (on page 5) like this (everything was taken from the help file 'Open settings')

    «Page "/A" CompletePathToAdobeReader = "CompletePathToPDF", 5"»

    That is to say

    "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Reader.

    but now - not that it opens a specific page, but it won't open the file at all.

    Edit:

    Operating systems: Windows 7, Windows XP

    Thank you.

    Post edited by: v604

    Yes, he has correctly reported because there is a syntax error in your order. Try spaces between the /A switch and open the setting. Try this:

    "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Reader" /A "page = 5" "d:\V2\DataSheet.pdf" "."

    I hope this helps.

  • How can I remove Lotus Notes PDFMaker plugin via command line?

    How can I remove the plugin from PDFMaker lotus notes via command line?  I initially deployed Adobe Acrobat 10 as a full install on multiple computers.  I see how to remove this specific feature through the user interface in Windows 7 by going to Control Panel / programs and features / Adobe Acrobat X / change / modify / create adobe PDF / acrobat PDFMaker / Lotus Notes, but it would be a tedious task to do manually on each computer.  I've experimented with a few msiexec commands after removing Acrobat such as:

    msiexec /i "\\path in msi" remove = pdfmakerforlotusnotes

    &

    msiexec /i '\\path in msi' disable_pdfmaker = yes

    The two still install acrobat as a full install.  Any help and suggestions would be appreciated.  Thank you!

    Try to use the correct case: PDFMakerForLotusNotes
