Save Comparison Result in a Different Format Leave feedback
On this page
The simplest way to control the output format of a comparison is to pick a result file path with the matching extension. GroupDocs.Comparison infers the output format from the extension and produces a result file in that format.
from groupdocs.comparison import Comparer
def save_comparison_result_in_different_format():
with Comparer("./source.docx") as comparer:
comparer.add("./target.docx")
# Output is inferred from the file extension — .pdf in this case.
comparer.compare("./result.pdf")
if __name__ == "__main__":
save_comparison_result_in_different_format()

Supported output formats depend on the source file type. Common targets include DOCX, PDF, and HTML.
Use case: deliver a PDF diff to stakeholders while keeping DOCX for editing.
