Workshare Compare Server 5.2 supports commonly used formats such as PDF, DOC, DOCX, RTF and HTML for comparison and also supports UNICODE compliance. It provides an Application programming interface (API) which allows the developers to write custom document comparison software for enterprise or web applications. The output from comparison is a comparison document known as a “Redline” which describes the differences between the two versions.

Workshare Compare Server enables productivity and workflow improvements by integrating enterprise applications for easy comparison of Word to Word, Word to PDF or PDF to PDF. And all this can be done from a single browser window. Workshare Compare Server can be used in conjunction with existing Enterprise Content Management solutions to eliminate administration overhead with efficient and enhanced comparison service.

The additional benefits of Workshare Compare Server 5.2 includes:

• Streamlined document review with multi-party collaboration and parallel review of documents. This would prevent version proliferation during the review process
• Flexibility to developers by providing access to APIs
• Centrally hosted solution instead of distributed desktop implementation
• Integrates with existing enterprise and web applications using simple API to integrate
