Hello

Is it possible to find duplicate pages in a 304-page PDF through action?"

That is not possible with PitStop Pro.

I am thinking of a possible approach in Switch but it would only work if the pages are really identical at the page stream level. Is that the case for the files that you have? Can you share an example? Pages could look identical, but not be identical e.g. one page has live text and the other page has contourized text, the content could be the same but the sizes of the pages could be different, ...

What is the use case for this? How often is this a problem? How serious is the impact of the problem?

Thank you very much Freddy .

We have encountered an incident related to a bad layout where four pages have appeared randomly repeated.

The curious thing is that the foliation is correct but what would be the text box is not.

This is the first time I have encountered this problem.

to preserve anonymity I send you an example via wetransfer
