How is order preserved?

The FIRST occurrence is always kept; subsequent identical pages are removed. So duplicates that appear later in the document are the ones discarded.

Will it work on scanned PDFs?

No — duplicate detection requires extractable text. Run OCR PDF first.

How does the Remove Duplicate Pages work?

Find pages with identical extracted text and remove the duplicates, keeping only the first occurrence. Useful after a misconfigured scan that captured each page twice, after merging multiple revisions of the same document, or any clean-up workflow where exact duplicates have crept in. Detection is text-based — pages whose extracted text matches exactly (after whitespace normalisation) are treated as duplicates. Image-only / scanned PDFs need OCR first since they have no extractable text.

Frequently asked

Pages whose extracted text is byte-identical after whitespace normalisation (collapse runs of spaces). Visual differences in formatting that don't change text are not detected — those pages still count as duplicates.
