Read

Mark it, sign it, fill it in.

  • Highlight, underline and strike through in seven colours, add notes, and find them all again in the annotation sidebar.
  • Draw on PDF pages with a pen or marker, add shapes, and place stamps and signatures.
  • Copy a table from a PDF page as cells for a spreadsheet or as a Markdown table.

Listen

Every word, as it is spoken.

  • Listen reads with macOS voices by default, including Premium, Enhanced and Personal Voice.
  • Two neural voice models can be downloaded and then read on your Mac without a network connection.
  • Speedread shows the text in a panel, 1 to 20 words a line, and the Reading Ruler marks the line or word being read.

Library

Search everything you keep.

  • Index folders of documents where they are. Docuria only reads them: it never changes, moves or copies them.
  • The title bar’s search field works in every mode, across your open tabs and the library.
  • Meaning search finds passages by what they mean: ask a question or describe an idea, and Docuria finds the passages about it, on your Mac.
  • Narrow a search by tags, kinds, dates and size, and save searches.

Compare

Find what repeats.

  • Find passages repeated within one document, or the passages of one that also appear in another, shown in two panes.
  • Match by a number of words, phrases, sentences or paragraphs, and leave small differences out.
  • Matches show as cards in the sidebar and as highlights in the text.
Compare mode: two documents side by side with the passages they share highlighted, and a card for each match in the sidebar Compare mode, in the dark theme

Contrast

See what changed.

  • Find differences by line, word or character. Inserted text is blue, deleted text red.
  • See the two versions side by side, or inline in one pane.
  • Reflow joins line breaks inside paragraphs first, so rewrapped text doesn’t show as changed.
  • Step through the changes, filter them, and see them in context.
