The following example will show you how the Excel diff looks like:If you want to watch a complete workflow, take a look at the complete flickr gallery. We've added a bunch of screenshots there so you can see it in action.The following screencast shows how to run a merge of Word files with Plastic SCM.Setting up Office diff in Plastic SCMThere are several options depending on whether you're just installing Plastic SCM from scratch or updating an existing installation.New Plastic SCM installationsYou're the lucky one. Plastic SCM comes with everything pre-configured, so just start diffing your office files.Existing Plastic SCM setupSince your diff and merge tools are already configured, Plastic won't overwrite any configurations to prevent altering manually introduced adjustments.In case you didn't modify anything on the default diff/merge setup (which is very likely if you're not using any external diff tool), then you'll need to go through the following steps:Close Plastic SCMDelete client.conf. (Remember it is located on your user's directory, in my case here: C:\Users\pablo\AppData\Local\plastic4\client.conf).Launch the configuration wizard again: you can type plastic --configureExisting Plastic SCM setups with tuned merge scriptsIn case you modified your merge or diff configuration, then don't reset your client.conf but instead follow the instructions below:Go to preferences, then 'diff and merge tools' in the Plastic SCM GUI. Then, you'll have to add new 'rules' for your files. Remember to move them up so they're the first rules on each category (otherwise the generic tools for binary files will take preference).Word diff: add the following

Diff-pdf-visually: Find visual differences between two PDFsTable of ContentsHow to install thisOn Ubuntu LinuxOn Mac with Homebrew (untested)On Windows Subsystem for LinuxOn Windows nativeHow it worksSo what do you use this for?StatusSupported Python versionsThis script checks whether two PDFs are visually the same. So:White text on a white background will be ignored.Subtle changes in position, size, or color of text will be detected.This program will ignore changes caused by a different version of the PDF generator, or by invisible changes in the source document.This is in contrast to most other tools, which tend to extract the text stream out of a PDF, and then diff those texts. Such tools include:pdf-diff by Joshua TaubererThere seem to be some tools similar to the one you're looking at now, although I have experience with none of these:Václav Slavík seems to have an open source oneThere might be more useful ones mentioned on this SuperUser threadThe strength of this script is that it's simple to use on the command line, and it's easy to reuse in scripts:from diff_pdf_visually import pdf_similar# Returns True or Falsepdf_similar("a.pdf", "b.pdf")Or use it from the command line:$ pip3 install --user diff-pdf-visually$ diff-pdf-visually a.pdf b.pdfHow to install thisYou can install this tool with pip3, but we need the ImageMagick and Poppler programs.On Ubuntu Linuxsudo apt updatesudo apt install python3-pip imagemagick poppler-utilspip3 install --user diff-pdf-visuallyIf this is the first time that you pip3 install --user something, then log out totally from Linux and log in again.
