Load file from local disk

When the source file is located on the local disk GroupDocs.Comparison allows you to load it via Comparer class constructor specifying absolute or relative path to it. For loading target file located on the local disk you should use add method that accepts absolute or relative path as parameter. 

Following code snippet shows how to load files from local disk.

Comparer comparer = new Comparer("C:\\source.pdf");
try {
    comparer.add("C:\\target.pdf");
    comparer.compare("C:\\result.pdf");
} finally {
    comparer.dispose();
}
