Document Compare can now compare text read by OCR in Plain Text - When you read a PDF that has no text data (such as a scanned PDF) with "Analyze with OCR" in Visual (Pro), Plain Text also compares the text that was read. While it compares OCR text, it says so (the text may contain misreadings). Improvements - After running OCR in Visual, switching to Plain Text and back meant running OCR again. The OCR results are now kept. - The notice shown for PDFs with little text data now points to where you can compare how the pages look by the names on screen ("Diff" in the "Image" tab).

Document Compare now tells you why text can't be compared - When a file has no text data, such as a scanned PDF, the "Plain Text" view could show nothing, without saying why. It now shows which file has no text and why. When both files are the same format, it also points you to "Visual", where you can compare how the pages look (for PDFs, "Analyze with OCR" in Visual reads the text from the images — Pro). Bug fixes - Fixed: with two displays at different scaling, the window's position and size could shift at every launch (it could move to the other display or off screen). After this update, the first launch opens the window at the default position and size. - Fixed: in Document Compare's "Details", PDF titles and authors with non-Latin characters such as Japanese were garbled.

Change Review is even easier to use - Reorder the versions in a group by dragging the handle (the ↑↓ keys work too). Version numbers follow the new order, and the change summary is updated. - When you save a comparison, you can add it to a group right in the Save dialog — pick an existing group or create a new one. Image compare - ICO images can now be compared. - If you choose an image format that cannot be compared, the app tells you. Audio compare - The score is now labeled "File info match", with a note that the audio content itself is not compared. Bug fixes - Fixed: rerunning a comparison from "Recent Snapshots" while the same compare screen was open did nothing. - Fixed: the limit notice on the purchase screen now shows the correct Pro limits for groups and versions. - Fixed: keeping the store's sign-in window open for a long time during a purchase or restore no longer shows a timeout error.

Finding your way around Change Review is easier - After opening a comparison from a group or from History, Back now returns you to where you came from. - After you save a snapshot, click "View in History" in the notification to open it right away. - The Change Review screen now shows how many snapshots are not in a group yet. Bug fix - Fixed an issue where opening a PDF, Word, PowerPoint, or Excel comparison from History opened the text comparison screen.

Improved CSV and TSV previews - Raised the preview size limit to 100 MB. - Large files now load with lower memory use. - Improved Japanese character encoding detection, reducing garbled text. - Added a warning when a file contains an unclosed quotation mark ("). Bug fix - Fixed the free-tier message that could say the daily limit was reached while uses remained.

Improved delivery data creation - Date, extension, and exclusion changes now update the file list immediately. - Add extensions and exclusion patterns from suggestions and see their match counts. - Modified presets are marked as Custom and can be saved as new presets. - Added a clear next-step button and guidance when no files match the current filters. Expanded file previews - Preview CSV, TSV, PPTX, and PDF files inside the app. - PDF previews support page navigation and zoom. - Increased the PPTX preview limit to 50 MB. - Fixed long action labels and the external-app button icon.

Improved folder comparison - Open an A/B diff directly from a changed file. - Long lines now wrap, with more consistent view controls. - A full-height divider and line counts make short files easier to compare. Startup and stability improvements - Fixed Free-tier restrictions and purchase prompts appearing before a Pro license was checked. - Recent comparisons are no longer trimmed while the license check is pending. - Improved purchase messages when product information is unavailable, and clarified version-limit guidance. - Prevented repeated CSV export requests and improved the stability of group and version deletion.

Expanded Change Groups - Add versions and optional notes directly from a group. - Compare any two versions in a group. - Fixed adding and deleting versions, plan limits, and guidance when a limit is reached. Improved PDF comparison - Added page and zoom controls to the Image tab: use left/right arrows to navigate, + and - to zoom, and 0 to reset to 100%. - Fixed blank white pages in the Image tab when opening a document or changing pages. - Fixed document text turning into colored rectangles after repeated page or zoom changes in the Visual tab. - Fixed outdated content being used after updating and reselecting a PDF with the same name in the same folder. Other improvements and fixes - Clearer wording in Recent comparisons, including a File not found message for missing files. - Purchase buttons are easier to distinguish from other actions. - Fixed the Clear button appearing for empty history and unwanted scrolling when switching recent-comparison tabs. - Fixed Free-tier UI briefly appearing at launch for Pro users.

Major update: the comparison engine has been significantly upgraded. ■ New - OCR for scanned PDFs: scanned documents without a text layer can now be analyzed with on-device OCR to detect differences (fully offline; English, Japanese, German, French). - Tracked-changes view for Word: a redline view showing deletions with strikethrough and insertions with underline, inline in a single document. - Pixel diff for images: visualize the actual differences between two images with red highlights, with an adjustable threshold and fullscreen support. - Comparison report export: save text comparison results as a shareable HTML report. ■ Improved - Excel: inserting a row no longer marks every following row as "changed" (row matching rebuilt). - Fixed Excel dates being displayed as serial numbers (e.g. 44927). - Removed remaining Japanese text from English, German, and French screens. ■ Fixed - Change Review: could not create a second group even after purchase. - Restore Purchases could fail to re-enable the add-on. - Audio comparison: the results panel was not displayed. - Text comparison: "Ignore whitespace" corrupted the displayed text. - Many additional bug fixes and stability improvements.

This release includes minor fixes and stability improvements. - Fixed an issue where Japanese text could appear on some screens in English, German, and French. - Minor UI refinements.

Pick up where you left off — rerun any recent comparison in one click. Recent Comparisons - Every comparison is now logged automatically. Rerun it in one click from "History" on the home screen (text, folder, image, PDF, Excel, audio, video). - Switch between "History" and "Snapshots" with tabs. Other - UI refinements and bug fixes.

Automatic display-language detection and improvements to document comparison. Display Language - On first launch, the app now matches your system language (Japanese / English / German / French). Document Comparison (PDF) - Multilingual PDFs (including Japanese) now show diffs correctly in the text and detail views as well. - Changes are shown as "Before (red) / After (green)", with the selected change emphasized so you always know where you are. - A clearer change summary, e.g. "Before → After: 3 rewritten". Saved Comparisons (Snapshots) - Added Document and Spreadsheet tabs to the list. Other - Minor bug fixes.

A major update to folder comparison. We have rebuilt the folder comparison view and terminology in response to reviewer feedback. - Fixed inconsistencies where identical folders showed "deleted" badges, totals did not add up, or stats were unclear - New "Differences" header with categorized breakdown, plus a plain-language summary describing how the comparison folder differs from the base - Files that share a name but differ are now shown as "size differs", "date differs" or "both differ" — accurate and specific - Split list view now uses ghost rows (like DiffChecker / Beyond Compare) so files missing on one side are clearly visible - Dynamic file-type filter: choices are populated based on the actual files loaded (video, audio, documents, archives, etc.) File preview is also significantly improved: - PNG / JPG / GIF / WebP / SVG and other image formats now display correctly - WAV / MP3 / MP4 / MOV audio and video files play in-modal, with streaming for large videos - Folder rows no longer show a misleading preview icon Several other bugs are fixed as well (file load failures in preview, header z-index issues, missed usage counts, and more).

German language support added. Diff Pro Max is now available in German (Deutsch). Switch the display language from the language menu in the header. This release also fixes a number of remaining hardcoded Japanese strings that appeared in the English UI: the filter comparison view header, text comparison search results, PDF/HTML export headers, date/time formatting, and restore-purchase notifications.
