Compare two DOC using Swift

Highly accurate Swift diff checker to compare DOC files and find differences between them

Our powerful Swift SDK allows you to find the difference between DOC documents and save the results to a convenient format for viewing. To verify our product capabilities, compare DOC files using this Swift library and see the differences.

Compare DOC in Swift

Our Swift SDK is designed to give you the most accurate result, even though comparison is a complex function itself.

Sometimes you need to be sure that the document in the DOC format has not been changed, and if it has, you need to find out what the difference is. Just use our Swift diff tool to compare two DOC files and find differences in whole words or single characters. Moreover, if only one character in a word has changed, this word will be marked as changed entirely.

Now you no longer need to spend time manually comparing DOC documents, and you can quickly find even small changes and export such diffs to a document in a convenient format.

Try to compare DOC documents

Check out how our solution to compare DOC files using Swift SDK works. To achieve this, load the DOC files you want to compare and select the export file format – it will be automatically loaded after comparing.

Note that you need to accept all revisions in compared documents before calling the comparison method, as shown in our example:
