For this use the configuration with property **CONTINUOUS\_COMPARE\_TYPES**.  
As second value is expected

- CompareType.TEXT
- CompareType.LINE
- CompareType.IMAGE

For example

```
configuration.putValue( PDFCProperty.CONTINUOUS_COMPARE_TYPES, "" + CompareType.IMAGE );
showModifications( pdfComparer.setConfiguration( configuration ).compare( files[0], files[1] ) );

```

If needed two or more types, can this be do by add a comma and the next typs.

```
configuration.putValue( PDFCProperty.CONTINUOUS_COMPARE_TYPES, "" 
+ CompareType.IMAGE +"," 
+ CompareType.TEXT);

```
