### Detecting duplicates {#fuzzy_duplicate}
Paperless already catches and prevents upload of exactly matching documents,
however a new scan of an existing document may not produce an exact bit for bit
duplicate. But the content should be exact or close, allowing detection.
This tool does a fuzzy match over document content, looking for
those which look close according to a given ratio.
```
document_fuzzy_match [--ratio]
```
Optional arguments:
--ratio - a number between 0 and 100, setting how similar a document must be for it to be reported.
Higher numbers mean more similarity.
