Office Diff is a handy tool for anyone who needs to keep track of changes in files. Sometimes when you update a file or its content, it’s smart to make a backup first. This is especially true for text files where you might want to compare similar versions to find the one that works best for you. Luckily, with specialized applications like Office Diff, you can quickly spot and display those differences.
A super cool feature is that Office Diff comes in a lightweight package! You don’t even need to install it to use it. This means you can keep it on a USB flash drive and take it with you wherever you go. No worries about messing up the target PC either, since it doesn’t change any registries.
When you launch the app, a simple main window pops up. It has fields for your source files, gives a quick rundown of how things work, and has an easy trigger button. The application even loads two example files by default so you can see how everything functions right away.
Just hit the “Diff” button and your default web browser will open with the comparison results! An HTML file gets created automatically showing your findings. You’ll see two columns side by side for each document along with a small legend that explains what all those colors mean. Differences are highlighted clearly, showing what’s new, what’s been edited, and what’s been removed.
Another great perk is the range of file types supported by Office Diff! You can load documents like XLSX, DOCX, PPTX, XLS, DOC, PPT, SXW, SXC, SXI, ODT, ODS, ODP, HTML, HTM, PDF, and EML. Just remember that while content is displayed nicely here for comparison purposes only—any edits have to be made in their respective editors.
In short, Office Diff really shines as an office assistant! It’s perfect when you need to analyze various types of rich documents and check if anything has changed—be it additions or removals. With its lightweight design and straightforward interface, you'll be up and running in no time!
