The Duplicate Viewer tool can be used for quick reference when reviewing Duplicate or Near-Duplicate documents within the active Case Database.
Open the Duplicate Viewer from the Menu of the Main User Interface by selecting Tools > Duplicate Viewer.
There are two separate tabs, one for referencing Duplicates, and another for referencing Near-Duplicates:
  Duplicates
This tab is used for quick reference on Duplicate case documents. Highlighting a document within the Document List of the Case Directory pane will cause its DocID to be displayed here, along with any other relevant information for that document:
•If the highlighted document is considered a Duplicate, then all associated duplicates of that document will also be listed here by DocID. The _DupID is shown for "Parent" level duplicates (always listed first), and the DupStatus is shown for all other "Global" or "Custodian" level duplicates. Left-clicking on the documents listed here will cause them to be located and highlighted within the Case Directory pane. •If the highlighted document is not considered a duplicate, then the message "is not a duplicate" will be displayed instead. Additionally, you can see the deduplication status of the Case Database by clicking on the appropriate link at the bottom of this tab.
