Side-by-side or overlay PDF diff driven by one engine that reads each file into a structured model — text, vector geometry, images, form fields, annotations — and compares the models. Moves show as moves, edits show only where they happened, and any PDF type works without picking a mode.

Buxton Blue is a russet, blue-veined cylinder made from pasteurised cow milk with a little whey cream, coloured with annatto. After cutting, scalding, salting and milling, the curd is pressed, bound in cloth and pierced so the blue mould can grow. It matures at 8–14 °C and is usually sent out at 4–10 weeks.
Total time across the recorded steps: 28 days – 2.3 months

Buxton Blue is a russet, blue-veined cylinder made from pasteurised cow milk with a little whey cream, coloured with annatto. After cutting, scalding, salting and milling, the curd is pressed, bound in cloth and pierced so the blue mould can grow. It matures at 8–14 °C and is usually sent out at 4–10 weeks. Made in 6 steps over 28 days – 2.3 months. The longest step, pierce and mature, takes 28 days – 2.3 months (UK Defra 2006) and runs at 8–14 °C (UK Defra 2006). Salt is 0.3 % (UK Defra 2006). Blue mould culture, added with the starter and annatto does most of the fermenting.
Buxton Blue comes from a creamery that has made Stilton since 1886, but it is coloured russet with annatto and kept in cloth binders, so it never forms a coat. The specification says its starter, fat, acidity and moisture differ from other blue cheeses.
Rind
Clean cloth-bound surface, no mould coat
Composition
At despatch: moisture at most 48%, fat in dry matter at least 48%, fat about 37.5%, salt about 1.5%
Size
Cylinder about 8.0 kg (7.5–8.5 kg), height 190–220 mm, diameter 200 mm
The milk is pasteurised. The specification sets despatch limits for E. coli (reject above 500 per gram) and coagulase-positive Staphylococcus aureus (reject above 100 per gram), and the cheese is shipped chilled at 5 °C.
Hazards the sources name: Escherichia coli and coagulase-positive Staphylococcus aureus, with reject limits of over 500 and over 100 per gram at despatch.
The Hartington creamery opened in the 1870s and began making Stilton in 1886. Its workforce came from the same local families for generations. Buxton Blue was registered as a PDO in 1996 (Commission Regulation (EC) No 1107/96), with Dairy Crest's Hartington creamery as the applicant.
