Is there any way to generate a PDF format file compare report via a script or command line switch?

Beyond Compare can't output directly to PDF. As a workaround, output the report to a printer and use a PDF Printer. A PDF printer is included with Windows 10. If you're using an older version of Windows, you might try something like Adobe Acrobat or PrimoPDF.Chris K Scooter Software -
Yes, scripts can output reports to printers.
Example script to compare a pair of files and output result to printer:
file-report layout:side-by-side options:ignore-unimportant,display-mismatches output-torinter c:\file1.txt c:\file2.txt
To run the script, use the command line:
"c:\program files (x86)\beyond compare 3\bcompare.exe" @c:\script.txt
The @ character makes Beyond Compare run a file as a script instead of loading it for interactive comparison.
