Compare split lines with non-split lines
Posted: Wed Jul 03, 2019 10:50 pm
Hi,
I'm comparing a word document (left) with a PDF file (right). The PDF file was generated from a newer revision of the word document.
The PDF has hard line-breaks in places that the word document just visually wraps to the next line. As such, ExamDiff concludes that they are very different.
Is there a way to get ExamDiff to examine sentences rather than lines?
I've tried:
Thanks,
Fidel

I've tried:
- Replacing \n with spaces in ExamDiff
- Playing with the wrap type and width settings in ExamDiff
- Converting the word document to PDF, but this ends up producing a PDF with slightly different wrapping to the other PDF
- Playing with the margins in Microsoft Word to achieve the same PDF wrapping
Thanks,
Fidel
