Comparing sessions using the Edit Log

Comparing sessions using the Edit Log is useful to check differences that are hardly visible on screen, such as overprint or trapping settings or changes in (hidden) layered objects.

To compare sessions using the Edit Log

Choose Certified PDF > History.
Select two sessions from the session list.
Click Using the Edit Log.

The first snapshot is opened and the Enfocus Certified PDF Edit Log Navigator appears.
Select one of the changes in the list.
The document will show where the changes occurred by adding a transparent overlay to the object.

Note: You can change the color of the transparent overlay in the Preferences (Edit/Acrobat > Preferences > Enfocus StatusCheck > General).
To switch views between the first and the second snapshot, click the Toggle button.

The Edit Log Navigator displays only the changes for the current page in the document. If you go to another page in your PDF document, the Edit Log Navigator adjusts the list of changes to match the new page.
