Hello,
We are having an issue with GroupDocs.Comparison for .NET that causes the comparison of two difference versions of an MS Word document to not display correctly.
In the specific scenario we are comparing these documents:
previous-version.docx (89.7 KB)
current-version.docx (88.2 KB)
The first problem is that the table of content section will not display color coded changes. Furthermore, the table numbering is modified, incorrectly placing one of the changes in a new section 2.2 that is not supposed to exist.
See below screenshots of the table of contents:
Old version:
image.png (30.9 KB)
New version:
image.png (29.5 KB)
Comparison:
image.png (36.6 KB)
The remaining content following the table of contents will display color coded changes, however, the structure of the document will be incorrect due to the inadvertent addition of section 2.2, making the comparison messy and not so helpful.
The results occur for GroupDocs.Comparison v. 26.2.0 when running on console applications (we have tested both .NET 10 and .NET Framework 4.8 with identical results), on Windows 11, like so:
using var comparer = new Comparer(loadPath1);
comparer.Add(loadPath2);
comparer.Compare(outputPath);
When attempting to compare the same documents with your online comparison tool at Document Comparison APIs & Apps we cannot get it to work but are instead stuck on an empty gray screen.
Thank you for your assistance.
