Generating a new similarity report

If you believe something may have been added to our database since a paper's last similarity report was generated or if you make changes/set exclusions, you can generate a new similarity report from the Filters and Settings panel.

  1. To generate a new similarity report, click the red filter icon from the similarity toolbar. If the similarity layer was inactive, it will now be activated, highlighting all on-paper matches.

  2. From the bottom of the Filters and Settings side panel, click the New Report button to generate a new report.
  3. We encourage you to only generate a new report if you have reason to believe that something new has been added to the database, as your previous similarity report will be overwritten. Click Refreshto generate a new report, or Cancel to abort.
  4. When refreshing your Similarity Report, please be aware the previous report will be overwritten.
