We assume that:
- You work in [Overleaf]([your overleaf project])
- You have a LaTeX editor installed, e.g. texshop
- You have latexdiff (command line tool) installed
- Label the overleaf project at first submission: go to
[your overleaf project] > History > All history > [latest documented change] > More actions (3 dots) > Label this version > [choose your label] - After reviewing & introducing changes into the overleaf project, (recommended) do the labelling again for the re-submission
- to produce the diff pdf, download both overleaf projects:
- to download the current version:
[your overleaf project] > Download > Source - to download the previous (submitted) version:
[your overleaf project] > History > Labels > [choose the label] > More actions (3 dots) > Download this version
- to download the current version:
- compile both separately in your local latex editor (to get .bbl output files from bibtex). "Compile" = Run LaTeX, then BiBTex, then 2x LaTex compiler
- in terminal, navigate to new project folder
- run from command line:
latexdiff --flatten [filepath to old tex file] [name of new tex file] > diffs.tex - this will produce the diffs.tex file in the current folder; to produce the diffs PDF, compile the diffs tex
