I work with links to these pdfs (on network folder). Ideally (in my case), such a duplicate would be detected by ZotFile, checked whether it is actually the same pdf, and in that case the existing fil

@MILKLIMuser - you can do that with ZotFile user-defined wildcards in ZotFile 3.1 (currently only available from the version page: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/zotfile/versions/ sinc
