This repository contains examples that illustrates how to compare two DOCX format documents and highlight the changes, such as insertions, deletions, and formatting, as tracked changes programmatically in C#. The Syncfusion .NET Word library (DocIO) compares two Word documents with just few lines of code and also it does not require Microsoft Word application to be installed in the machine.
- Set Author and Date - Compare the two Word documents by setting the author and date for revisions to identify the changes.
- Ignore format changes - Compare two Word documents by ignoring the format changes.
The Syncfusion DocIO is a .NET Word library allows you to add advanced Word document processing functionalities to any .NET application and does not require Microsoft Word application to be installed in the machine. It is a non-UI component that provides a full-fledged document instance model similar to the Microsoft Office COM libraries to iterate with the document elements explicitly and perform necessary manipulation.
Take a moment to peruse the documentation, where you can find basic Word document processing options along with the features like mail merge, merge, split and compare documents, find and replace text in the Word document, protect the Word documents, and most importantly, the PDF and Image conversions with code examples.
