  2. Call the Add method. Specify the target document path or stream.
  3. Instantiate the CompareOptions object. Set the  PasswordSaveOption to PasswordSaveOption.User.
  4. Instantiate the SaveOptions object. Use the Password property to specify a password string.
  5. Call the Compare method. Specify the SaveOptions and CompareOptions objects as parameters.

The following code snippet shows how to compare documents and protect the output document with password:

using (Comparer comparer = new Comparer("source.docx"))
{
    comparer.Add("target.docx");
    CompareOptions cOptions = new CompareOptions
    {
     	PasswordSaveOption = PasswordSaveOption.User
    };
    SaveOptions sOptions = new SaveOptions()
    {
     	Password = "3333"
    };
    comparer.Compare("result.docx", sOptions, cOptions);
}
