Re: LuaLaTeX + fontspec: cannot compare documents with Acrobat

["Jörg Weber" <weber@jwe.cc>]

Some further testing showed that the simple document with palatino compares fine, but with dejavu it is not comparable. With XeLaTeX, setting palatino as the main font, still does not work.

Hans' MWE is not comparable, but Aditya's example (with \setupbodyfont[palatino]) compares just fine!

I can't process that here. This is a easier test:

\nopdfcompression

\setupbodyfont[dejavu]

\startTEXpage[offset=10pt]
     a % a
\stopTEXpage

Even such a minimal document cannot be compared. I have no clue how the compare is supposed to work but if a simple 'a' vs 'aa' document does not work while the files preflight ok it's probably an acrobat issue.
