Well, I'm not sure if any of this helps you beyond what
you could get from pdflister ( which I just found out
about today ) or the rups/pdftk packages
but if you are willing to help me develop my
utilities great :)
Certainly
a text location dump tells you they are different ( duh)
but have some locations that seem to line up
( these are the text fields that are in same position
in both docs, the fields are number_of_docs, page, x,y, text)
$ cat text_mac text_doze |sort | uniq -c | sort -g -r | more

[etc]
These seem to be near each other but not quite in
same place,

The reflection traversal utility did seem to show a difference
in the organization but I can't tell if it is of any significance
and there is some binary data I left garbled. If you just
dump dictionaries in the order in which they are found,
the resulting text is different( if you think this MAY
be useful I can try to clean and format the output, I just
wanted to make sure I could use the itext library with this) ,
$ diff doze mac | unix2dos |head> /dev/clipboard
[ hotmail seems to think that less than means html so I had
to edit that out of these diff dumps... ]

All the sizes I caught are the same ( although dates do seem to differ LOL),
( this output contains lines from the dumps of your two files
and counts the number of occurences of each line.)

Could also attach an additional copy or two of your
confidentiality notice ( lol, sorry I just need to
point out something to make my rants look more acceptable).
