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.
Cow milk is soured with mostly mesophilic cultures, set with calf rennet at 32–38 °C, cut into cubes and drained in square moulds for at least 16 hours without pressing. After salting the cheeses rest and grow yeasts for two days, then ripen in humid brick cellars for at least 35 days, brushed or washed with salt water until the rind turns red-orange. Made in 5 steps over 38 days. The longest step, ripen in humid brick cellars, brushed or washed, takes at least 35 days (INAO 2014) and runs at 9–16 °C (INAO 2014). Mesophilic lactic acid bacteria and Brevibacterium linens do most of the fermenting.
Amounts from a sourceThe specification fixes the rennet dose and the steps, not a full recipe. Colouring agents are banned.
Cow milk · Raw, thermised or pasteurised; skimming is allowed, but the protein may not be adjusted[inao-mar]
Lactic cultures · Mostly mesophilic; added within 72 h of the oldest milking[inao-mar]
18–30 mL per 100 L of milk
Calf rennet · For rennet with 520 mg chymosin per litre[inao-mar]
Salt · Dry salt, dry salt then brine, or brine alone[inao-mar]
30 g salt per litre
Washing brine · Brine used to wash the rind in one study, with red-smear cultures[karamoko2024]

What makes this one different
Maroilles is square because its moulds were made from local hardwood that does not bend. Its curd is cut and drained without washing or pressing, given two days to grow yeasts, and then brushed or washed in humid brick cellars. Vieux-Lille is Maroilles washed in brine for months until it turns grey.
Milk
Cow milk only; raw, thermised or pasteurised
Ripening
At least 35 days from renneting (Maroilles); 28 days for Sorbais and Mignon, 21 for Quart
Size
PDO rules: 12.5–13 cm square moulds, at least 360 g of dry matter per cheese; at least 45 % fat in dry matter and 50 % dry matter
The specification says the monks of the abbey of Maroilles first made the cheese around 960, and from the 10th century the right to make it spread to nearby villages. It became an appellation by decree on 24 May 1976.
