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.
Ricotta is a boundary entry, set by heat and acid, not by microbes. Whey left from cow-milk cheesemaking is heated to 85–89 °C, then acid whey, wine vinegar or magnesium sulphate is added so the whey proteins rise as white flakes. The ricotta drains in baskets for about eight hours and is eaten within three days, or smoked for about a week into a firmer, brown-crusted poìna fumàda. Made in 6 steps over 10 days. The longest step, smoke (poìna fumàda), takes 7 days (Provincia autonoma di Trento 2013).
Amounts from a sourceThe PAT sheet gives the method, not a batch recipe. Each ricotta weighs 200–1,500 g.

What makes this one different
The Trentino sheet allows three ways to set the whey - sour whey (agro), wine vinegar or magnesium sulphate. Its smoked form was once kept like a hard grating cheese in mountain homes.
Shape and size
Truncated cone, 200–1,500 g
Fresh
No rind; bright white, soft and crumbly with small holes; made all year
Smoked
Thin brown crust; firmer smoke-yellow paste; made in summer
The PAT sheet quotes an 1898 statistic, reported by Cesare Battisti in 1912, in which the 42 summer dairies of Primiero recorded ricotta alongside butter and cheese. Corrado Trotter (1979) described two kinds of poìna, a soft goat one and a smoked, aged one used as a grating cheese before grana was known there. Lease contracts for summer pastures required a share of poìna for the local hospice. The social dairy of Primiero later took over the village dairies' methods.
