Thanks Mike!
DiffPDF is exactly the type of utility I was looking for!
I had already found diff-pdf, but it seemed to be more "code" oriented.
I couldn't really get the same kind of display as what DiffPDF produces.

Take a look at DiffPDF, it might do what you are looking for. Also there is
a project on GitHub that looks very promising diff-pdf

True, but I'm working with some folks that just got hired after being laid
off from McDonalds (reportedly they were under-performers.) My hope is a
side by side display of the two pdfs, with yellow highlighter on any line
that is not a match in the most recent document.
I realize I could easily write an application that would store the data
during each report run and then process a compare, or simply log all
editing activity and generate a report from the log...but the goal is
"quick fix" as in today. I've already got enough higher priority items on
my plate!
Thanks Paul!

Does anyone know of a free (or inexpensive) Windows utility that will
compare two PDF files and display the content differences?
PDFs are text files so you could use windiff...
The markup is probably unreadable though.
Alternatively use a tool to convert the PDFs to text files and compare
those.
