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.

Raw whole goat milk is soured with whey or a lactic starter and a little kid rennet and left at no more than 25 °C for at least 20 hours. The soft curd is ladled by hand into moulds without cutting, drains slowly for at least 36 hours, is dry-salted and set on a dried chestnut leaf. It ripens at least 12 days at 8–16 °C while Geotrichum makes the paste creamy.

Raw whole goat milk is soured with whey or a lactic starter and a little kid rennet and left at no more than 25 °C for at least 20 hours. The soft curd is ladled by hand into moulds without cutting, drains slowly for at least 36 hours, is dry-salted and set on a dried chestnut leaf. It ripens at least 12 days at 8–16 °C while Geotrichum makes the paste creamy. Made in 7 steps over 3.3 days. The longest step, drain slowly, takes at least 36 h (Ministère de l'agriculture 2026) and runs at 18–25 °C (Ministère de l'agriculture 2026). Lactic acid bacteria from the whey or starter, which sour the milk over at least 20 hours and Geotrichum, which develops strongly on the slowly drained raw-milk curd and makes the paste smooth and creamy do most of the fermenting.
A lactic goat cheese ripened on a dried chestnut leaf, which marks its base and keeps the paste moist; the specification requires raw milk, hand ladling and slow draining, which favour Geotrichum.
Milk
Raw whole goat milk, never heated above 25 °C
Ripening
At least 12 days from renneting, on a chestnut leaf
Size
Flat cylinder of at least 180 g with 65–85 g dry matter
The milk is raw. The specification limits tank storage of the milk to 4 °C or colder, though it lets milk be pre-matured warmer, and requires the curd to reach pH 4.55 or lower, or the whey an acidity of at least 55 °D, before moulding. Raw-milk cheese can carry Listeria, Salmonella and Shiga-toxin E. coli. ANSES, the French food-safety agency, advises pregnant women, young children, people over 65 and people with weak immunity not to eat it, except cooked pressed kinds such as Gruyère, which this soft goat cheese is not.
Goat cheese trade grew in southern Poitou along the pilgrim road to Santiago, and in the 19th century the leaf cheese was sold on regional markets, mostly by women. Curnonsky described the leaf-wrapped cheese of La Mothe-Saint-Héray in 1953; the name Mothais sur feuille came into use in the late 1980s.
