1. A system for comparing documents, the system comprising:
a document reader for reading information from a first physical document and information from a second physical document associated with an individual; a memory storing computer executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, generate a component that:
accesses the information read from the first document and the information read from the second document to extract information fields from the first and second documents;identifies common information fields between the first and second documents, wherein each common information field contains a parameter characterizing the individual;identifies different information fields that are found in either the first document or the second document, but are not found in both the first and second documents;compares the information from the common information fields in the first document with the information from the common information fields in the second document to determine if the information is identical or substantially identical;generates a display depicting a comparison of the information fields from the first document and the second document, wherein:
the display is bifurcated to depict information fields from the first document in a first portion and information fields from the second document in a second portion;the common information fields from the first and second documents are presented adjacent one another on the display;the different information fields from the first document are not presented adjacent to the different information fields from the second document on the display; anda visual indication is provided of whether the common information fields in the first document and the second document are identical or substantially identical.
