# latexdiff

> Determine differences between two LaTeX files.
> More information: <https://ctan.org/pkg/latexdiff>.

- Determine changes between different versions of a LaTeX file (the resulting LaTeX file can be compiled to show differences underlined):

`latexdiff {{old.tex}} {{new.tex}} > {{diff.tex}}`

- Determine changes between different versions of a LaTeX file by highlighting differences in boldface:

`latexdiff --type=BOLD {{old.tex}} {{new.tex}} > {{diff.tex}}`

- Determine changes between different versions of a LaTeX file, and display minor changes in equations with both added and deleted graphics:

`latexdiff --math-markup=fine --graphics-markup=both {{old.tex}} {{new.tex}} > {{diff.tex}}`
