How about using some web capture software instead like Surfulater? Then you wouldn’t need to go through the PDF production process, and it’s very quick to capture a page (right-click, “add new article to Surfulater/or whatever” and that’s it).

You can organise the pages into folders, and then it’s a lot easier to see whether there is any duplication in the folder. Plus there is the Filter tool in SF that filters the captured content on the basis of the title of the web page, again, to see duplication.

Though I imagine you must have your reasons why you want them as PDFs.
