Check Change Report Overview
In addition to a true/false result indicating successful conversion, DeltaNova Check outputs an HTML change report that can be viewed in any browser.
Report When No Changes Found
If the conversion did not lose any content, Check reports a successful conversion with a summary showing:
Conversion check successful! Our advanced comparison algorithm did not detect any content changes between the two input files. This means that you haven't lost any content in the conversion process.
Report When Changes Found
When changes are detected, the report shows a detailed summary.

Reading the Change Report
-
Deletion: Content in the original (A input) that is missing from the converted (B input).
-
Addition: Content in the converted (B input) that was not in the original (A input) — this may indicate spurious content was introduced.
-
Modification: Content that changed between the original and converted formats.
