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.
Open a STEP / STP part and it measures itself — volume, thinnest wall, draft and undercut checks on load, plus hole detection with a BOM. Measure, section, export STL. Rust + WASM B-rep kernel, runs in your browser.
Whole gourami are mixed with salt, sugar, a little alcohol, roasted rice powder, ginger, garlic and chilli, then left sealed at room temperature for about 30 days. Lactic acid bacteria sour the fish to about pH 4, and the acid dissolves part of the bone calcium, so the fish keep their shape but the bones turn soft enough to eat.

Whole gourami are mixed with salt, sugar, a little alcohol, roasted rice powder, ginger, garlic and chilli, then left sealed at room temperature for about 30 days. Lactic acid bacteria sour the fish to about pH 4, and the acid dissolves part of the bone calcium, so the fish keep their shape but the bones turn soft enough to eat. Made in 5 steps over 30 days. The longest step, sour at room temperature, takes 30 days (Đỗ Thị Tuyết Nhung 2014) and runs at 28–30 °C (Đỗ Thị Tuyết Nhung 2014). Salt is 10 % (Đỗ Thị Tuyết Nhung 2014). Pediococcus acidilactici and Lactobacillus farciminis do most of the fermenting.
Unlike salt-heavy mắm that ripen for months, this one uses 10% salt with 15% sugar and roasted rice, sours to about pH 4 in a month, and its acid softens the bones of the whole fish.
WHO says Clostridium botulinum will not grow below pH 4.6, and in one study the natural and the starter batches got there (about pH 4.1–4.4). The authors give pH below 4.6 as the safe limit for fermented foods eaten uncooked and say the product meets it, but they measured pH and microbe counts, not pathogens or toxin. The liquid starts near pH 6.3 and takes 10 to 15 days at 28–30 °C to fall that far, sealed from air, and the study says the fish itself falls more slowly. WHO names fermented fish among the foods that have carried the toxin. Clean, closed jars do not prevent this, and a batch that has not soured should not be eaten. Souring is no proof of safety either, because WHO says low pH does not break down toxin formed earlier. This is a study method, not a tested home method.
