If a proof has multiple versions, you can compare them side-by-side or use Smart Compare to automatically highlight differences.
You can:
Compare two different proofs or versions
Compare pages within the same proof
Add comments while comparing (if the latest version is still in review).
To compare proof versions
Step 1
Open the proof and click the compare icon at the bottom of the screen.
Step 2
Select the versions you’d like to compare. The proofs will display side-by-side.
Smart compare is available if you are comparing two static proofs.
Comments can be added in compare mode if the proof is in a status that allows commenting.
